Year 2 Spotlight
Learn to Swim Program
Year 2 students have taken to Friday’s swimming lessons like ‘ducks to water’!
The cohort have enjoyed participating in their first two lessons of the swimming program at Ivanhoe Aquatic Centre. The teachers were very impressed with how much better the students have already become at getting themselves dressed after this week’s lesson.There have only been a few lost items and children coming home in the wrong clothes!
These are some of the student’s thoughts on the program:
- I like swimming because I’ve got my friends in the group. ~ Leo S, 2C
- I like my group because it has the warm water. ~ Nicholas K, 2C
- I like swimming because you get to practise survival skills. ~ Alex P, 2D
- I like swimming because you get to do activities and learn new things. ~ Saskia N, 2D
- I like swimming because it’s fun. ~ Evie L, 2A
- It was very fun because I love swimming. ~ Hannah W, 2A
- I like swimming because it’s refreshing. ~ Teddy, 2A
- My favourite part is the bus ride because I get to sit on the back seat. ~ Max A, 2B
