Instructors

Sinead King

Course description

This level is for children that are ready to independently swim small distances. So now we’re beginning to get distance into our swimming, our little seals will learn to swim prone and supine, and to become fully independent in the water. They are ready to begin learning strokes. This is focused on awareness of whole-body buoyancy without aids. We’ll begin introducing new floating and stroke techniques and introducing fun elements, such as jumping in. They are ready to swim more than 4 metres prone and supine without aids. They are very confident in the water and very knowledgeable about water safety and hygiene and they also know all about the emergency services.
