AWE Swimming
Last week Room 9 went to AWE swimming at the Aquatic Centre. Believe it or not, we went swimming! At AWE swimming you learn how to do freestyle,backstroke,tows (pulling another person across the water without hurting their body), safety jump (aka safety step),how to put on a life jacket properly , treading water, floating on your back (and moving while floating on your back), and other things,including how to have fun while staying safe. You don't need to take goggles, but if you want to you can. AWE gives you rash tops to wear over top of you togs, for easy visibility, but they don't supply togs. And at the end, you get a certificate either gold, silver or bronze. AWE is now highly recommended by Room 9.
