We were thrilled to have contributed to the Sky Crossing "Rendezvous on the Runway" event promoting safety initiatives at Sky Crossing Elementary. Many of our swimmers are students at Sky Crossing today; and many more from our Angelfish and Tadpole levels are future students 🙌🏼
Our young swimmers are learning safety, boundaries, decision making, listening, language and more in the pool. We're helping to set them up for success in the classroom and beyond. We know, from the Griffith University study (Australia) that the cognitive benefits for kids that start swim lessons before the age of 5 are extremely significant.
- kids who start swim lessons before the age of 5 are 6 months ahead of their peers in math, specifically counting and numeracy.
- kids who start swim lessons before the age of 5 are 11 months ahead in verbal skill and 17 months ahead in story recall.
- kids who start swim lessons before the age of 5 are 6-15 months ahead in problem solving and cognitive skill.
Link to summary of "early years swim lessons" study in bio. Of the 7,000 kids studied, 500 were from the greater Phoenix area.
We look forward to seeing everyone back in the pool in April, classes begin April 7th. Registration will open March 6th! 🏊🏼♂️🏅
