Children at St Giles Primary School in Belvidere, Shrewsbury, have been getting swimming lessons after the school linked up with Embrace Group to get a pool installed for three weeks.
She believes this is a useful way to help youngsters get more confident and competent in the water, as well as being far more convenient and having less impact on their other lessons. "This way, all of our children, year three, four five and six, get lessons for three weeks in a solid block.""The children can stand up all the way across so especially for the younger children who are a bit nervous, it's perfect for them. They can have a short lesson and then off to their gazebos to get changed.
