Planting in the Garden - By Zane

That swimming for one week twice a year is not enough for children to make large shifts in their swimming.  Also suggests that parents need to provide swimming opportunities for children if they really want their child to learn to swim.  For some children however, this is the only chance for instruction.  We believe this is a fabulous programme and see significant progress in terms of water confidence and swimming ability.  There appears to be a significant challenge for children transitioning from the junior programme run by different swimming providers – children appear to do better on their second set of swimming instruction because they are familiar with the programme.
