Camp Series - Post 2 - Swimming 🌊

  Hello everyone, welcome to my blog!

My name is Amelia and this is the second post of my series called Camp Series!
(If you have not seen the first post, I advise you to have a look here.)
In this series I will be talking about the activities that I participated in on camp.
In this first post I will be talking to you, yes you, about my experience with Swimming.

I have done Swimming twice before at the wonderful Waipara Adventure Centre as I have visited with my family twice, yes twice.
This means that I have had some experience with swimming there, not to say that I didn't learn anything though, as I have learnt many new things, and not swimming skills, from this awesome experience at Swimming.

This experience with Swimming has taught me to keep on trying and never give up. It has showed me that to have fun when you're working with others, you need to synergize. Synergy is when you get along well with others, I know that when I'm working with others as a team, we can get things done faster than if you worked alone.

If you, yes you, are intrigued or interested in what I have stated, then you may want to have a peek at this slideshow that I have created so that you too, can experience the wonders of Swimming!



Have you ever been swimming before?
If so, have you swam in a swimming hole?
If you have not, then would you ever like to go swimming?

Have you ever been on a camp?
If so, what was your favourite activity or memory?
If you have not, then would you ever consider going on one?

Cya later everyone, have a nice day!

Swim Like A Fish 🐟 Dive Like A Dolphin 🐬

 

Hello bloggers!
For the last two weeks we have had Swim Safe instructors come to our school pool to teach us about water safety.
We were split into three groups based on our swimming ability.
People practiced strokes such as backstroke, freestyle, rolling logs.
I also got to wear a lifejacket and I learnt how to huddle to stay warm.
On the last day we wore our pyjamas over top of our togs.
We also made a whirlpool and went around and around the pool (weeee!).
Another thing we learnt is how to take your pyjamas off while in the water.

Here is my DLO:


I enjoyed having Swim Safe come to teach us because I leant a lot and I had heaps of fun as well.
My next steps for swimming are to be able to hold my breath for longer and to not get so tired.
My favourite part of Swim Safe was when I got to practice my survival backstroke and dolphin dives.
(They are so fun!)
Next time I am excited for wearing life jackets because they were really fun to have on.

-Do you like swimming?
-Do you have a school pool?
-If you do, have you had Swim Safe teach you?
-If you don't, what is your favourite stroke? (Mine is freestyle.)

Dive Like A Dolphin, Swim Like A Fish!


Konnichiwa!
Today I'm talking to you about something rather exciting.
The thing is... do you want to find out?

Well come on, you should have told me sooner, let's get into it!


In the house relays I think I did alright but seriously, I need to stop crashing into the lane ropes, it really slows me down.
I'm still really proud of how well I did and how hard I tried.

Do you do house relays?
Have you ever been to zones?
How well do you think you can swim?
