On Thursday this week we had our last day of swimming and it was so much fun! For about half an hour we did normal swimming and then for the rest of the time we were allowed to go in the shallow pool and play with the floats, balls and rubber rings. On Wednesday we did a quiz about the European Union. Everyone either got full marks or only one wrong so we all did really well. We had a quiz because we have now finished our European Union topic and I look forward to our next topic.
In swimming we have been doing front crawl, back crawl, breast stroke and butterfly.
When we have been doing front crawl I thought that front crawl was my strongest swimming style because I understand it perfectly.
Back crawl is probably my weakest swimming style because I always think that I am always about to bump my head.
Breast stroke is quite hard when you start learning, but gets easier and easier because I am a good swimmer. I am ok at breast stroke.
Butterfly is supposed to be really hard for most people but for me I am really good at it and I showed all the swimming class how to do it.
It’s nice to be with my class in swimming lessons.
I hope you enjoyed my blog.
Swimming class!
Primary 5 have been attending a 6 week block of swimming lessons at Eastwood Swimming Pool. Some of us were more confident swimmers than others, but by the end of the 6 weeks, we were all a lot more confident in the pool. We learnt front crawl, back crawl and breaststroke. We were able to race each other a lot and we were even allowed to swim with flippers. One of the things we all loved about our lessons, was the end of each session when we were allowed to jump into the pool. This week was our final week and that means that we all got to play on the floats. There were small floats and big floats and there was lots of jumping into the pool this week. It was such great fun! Our instructors were really helpful and they taught us a lot over our 6 sessions. We hope we get them again next year! We had a great time and we can’t wait to go swimming again soon.
