Swimming in the deep blue pool

For the past two weeks my school has been participating in swimming lessons. I really enjoyed practicing my swimming and learning more about how to swim and what swim you should use in different situations. 

My group practiced our diving and our roly poly's in the water. It was really cool to learn more about swimming and to get better if I'm ever in an difficult situation.

In the last three days we all did swim safety, I really enjoyed doing this because we were able to use a boat and life jackets. It was really cool to have the simulation in the pool. " Our boat had sunken, we were there in the ocean with no life jackets. We had to tread water for about 3 minutes while the instructors were throwing us life jackets. Then we had to get everyone onto the boat, but there wasn't enough room and life jackets. So the people who didn't fit had to hold onto the people on the boat." I really got into this simulation and I had a lot of fun participating in it.

Swimming lessons were very tiring and I am glad but sad that it is over. By the end of the two weeks I was exhausted, I am thankful for the instructors who taught us.

Have you done swimming lessons before??
