Puni Swimmer of the week

Jacob Holmes

Jacob is in our Incredible's level and has increased his fitness in swimming for his freestyle and backstroke, meaning he is now swimming a numerous amount of lengths. He has been working very hard each lesson on achieving his breaststroke kick technique in order for the whole stroke to be very nice and strong. Jacob has also been practicing his tumble turns, and these are getting better each week with him standing up less after he turns.

Amazing effort Jacob! Keep up the great effort!

Oscar Hewitt

Our swimmer of the week this week is Oscar as he has been doing such good swimming after he was off for a while with a broken bone ! He came back to swimming and was working towards his big arms which he has now mastered very nicely. He started off with not too strong of a kick on his back, but after practise was doing it with ease - which helped him achieve his rotations also ! After a lot of hard work he was able to have all his goals ticked off so was able to graduate his Crabs class !

Amazing effort Oscar. Keep it up !
