Middle School Swimming 

3A Recount 

Day 1. Monday was the first day of swimming, we travelled on the bus. We were put into groups and we all went into different spaces of the pool to test how good we could swim.

Day 2. We were numbered 1-8 and this was our swimming group. Each group did different activities such as backstroke, freestyle and diving.

Day 3. Some people changed groups. We continued doing our activities to improve our strokes.

Day 4. Some people got to go into the deep end of the pool. We all were assessed.

Day 5. Finally, on day five, it was a fun day. We all got to do three different activities in different sections of the pool. One activity was wearing a life vest. We slid or jumped into the deep end. Another activity was free time with pool noodles, bouncy balls and mats for the water. The last activity is doing torpedoes around the obstacle course. Swimming was great.
