My child does not swim how will you handle that?

We test each of the children to see their ability. If they say they cannot swim, then they are a signed as "white" meaning that they must stay in the shallow end of the pool. The better swimmers are "reds" with the top being "Blue". Reds can swim in water up to their armpits and Blues can go anywhere. All children are paired up with a buddy they must stay together at all time for that day of swimming. Back to top
