Back To Swimming Lessons

We were really worried about this but much to our relief, when Kelly took Aaron and Coby back to swimming two weeks ago, she said it was perfect and that they had done a very good job in keeping children and parents socially distant.  There were actually only two groups of children in the pool, which was Coby’s Stage 2 in the small pool and Aaron’s Stage 5/6 in the big pool.  This meant that it was nice and quiet in the cafe for Kelly to stand and wait for them, which was the main concern really.  The only other change was that the boys’ lessons finished 5 mins earlier to ensure time for them to change and leave the premises before the next groups arrived and that they are meant to turn up in their swimming gear ready to go.  The turning up part is the hardest as Kelly takes them straight from school so they still do get changed in the changing rooms as they don’t have much choice really.  As it is so quiet, it isn’t much of an issue though, thank goodness!

For the swimming itself, they both were very rusty when they started again as they hadn’t been swimming since March!  Aaron had forgotten how to do Butterfly completely! haha  They will soon get into it again though, as long as the pool doesn’t get shut down again!!  It is good that they are back as they really need to get through this now and get on and complete their swimming lessons!
