Well first km done and the arms are like jello.... 😂
But this is a great cause and these volunteers need our support.
Diving into this adventure at the new Christchurch Parakiore pool was fabulous too.

Hi legends! This June I’m taking on The Big Swim to raise funds for our amazing Coastguard volunteers. Every dollar I raise helps keep us all safe on the water - your support means more rescues and more lives saved. Back my challenge or jump in with me!

It's at least 11 years since I actually swam lengths of a pool. I walk up and down a tiny one every day but this will certainly be a challenge.
Realising that the Coastguard New Zealand is powered by over 2000+ volunteers ment this fundraising drive is a "no brainer" to help keep us all safer around and on the water.
In advance, Thank you so much!

Even though I spend 5 hours a day in the pool, this will definitely be a challenge for me, just like it is for kiddies submerging/ floating/ swimming in the deep end for the first time...
Anyone keen to join me...

Resharing this reminder of how you can help your kids to kick correctly from the glute muscles not from the knees.
Happy practicing for Term 1 starting on the 2nd February.

Thanks for so much fun and laughter this year.
Remember "100% attention 100% of the time" keeps us safe around water.
Warm wishes for the festive season and bring on 2026.
With the help of this little froggie, Merry Christmas

This week we created an exciting "under the sea" experience for the children to see what they can enjoy because they can swim. A snorkel week.
The youngest swimmer to master the snorkel and mask, and duck dive down, was 3 and half. It was a whole body sensory system experience.
Wettie mask and snorkels were top notch.

My bucket is overflowing... Little notes from past froggies while waiting for their siblings....

I'm hoping these gorgeous flowering bulbs, secretly planted by my late mum years ago, will still be blooming when you all return for Term 4.
See you from Monday 6 October for another fabulous term of fun, laughs and exploring the wonderful water.
