It’s Week 10 which means FUN week! ⭐️

Whilst we always aim to make every swim lesson FUN, we definitely turn it up a notch on the last week of term 🎉👏🥳

Why do we think it’s so important 👍

🏊 Builds confidence: Fun, low-pressure activities can help children feel more comfortable in the water.

😊 Keeps children motivated: Games make lessons exciting and can encourage children to look forward to swimming.

💪 Develops swimming skills: Activities can practise kicking, floating, breathing, jumping in and moving through the water without feeling repetitive.

🧠 Improves learning: Children often learn skills more naturally when they are engaged and having fun.

🤝 Encourages social skills: Group games help children practise cooperation, turn-taking and communication.

🌊 Reduces fear or anxiety: A playful environment can help children become more relaxed around water.

⭐ Creates positive associations: Enjoyable experiences can encourage children to continue swimming and become lifelong swimmers.

🎉 Celebrates progress: Fun Week can give children a chance to show off skills they've learned and celebrate their achievements.

We look forward to seeing you all this week 🙌. If you’ve not signed up for lessons yet just click on the link below 👇 Now is the perfect time to join us ready for the new term which starts next week!

It’s Water Safety Week here at TSC and it’s one of our favourites 🙌

Our children have been learning all about the importance of ‘The Safety Float’ this week and they’ve absolutely loved it. This skill saves lives and should never be underestimated.

The message is it’s always Better To Float On Your Back

🛟 Better for shouting (you can call for help)
🛟 Better for breathing (you can regulate your breathing on your back)
🛟 Better for looking (you can see when help is arriving)
🛟 Better for hearing (you can listen out for instructions)

We have tried to make all of our sessions as realistic as possible. The skill below simulates falling into the water and what you should do next 💦

Next week is Water Safety Week 🛟

Water safety education is vitally important for children because it helps them understand how to stay safe around swimming pools, rivers, lakes, the sea, and other bodies of water 💦

Further reasons that makes it so important ⬇️

🛟 Prevents drowning: Children learn essential skills such as floating, swimming, and getting out of the water safely.
🛟 Recognises dangers: They learn that water can be unpredictable, with risks such as strong currents, deep water, slippery surfaces, and cold temperatures.
🛟 Builds confidence: Learning safe behaviours can make children more comfortable and responsible around water without encouraging overconfidence.
🛟 responsible behaviour: Children learn rules such as not swimming alone, listening to adults, and avoiding running near pools.
🛟 Helps in emergencies: Basic knowledge of what to do if someone falls into water can help children respond appropriately and seek adult help quickly.
🛟 Develops lifelong skills: Water safety knowledge and swimming skills can protect children as they grow and take part in different water-based activities.

When you join our swim lesson programme you get so much more than your standard weekly swimming lessons ⭐️ .

Water safety is built into our core syllabus with children learning elements of the above skills every time they attend their swimming lessons with us. We even go further than that 🤩. At the end of each 10 week block we have Water Safety Week. This whole lesson is focussed on the key elements above and our children absolutely love it 🥰

Week 9 is next week parents! Please remember to check your emails for instructions on what your child needs to bring with them 📧

We can let wait for lots of water safety fun and learning! 👏👏👏
