Free Swimming Initiative

Thanks to the government's Free Swimming Initiative, we've taken our first trip to the local swiming pool since starting home education.

We had great fun in the small pool with parents, grandparents, babies and toddlers splashing about and then moved across to the big pool for a while. So we were 'big fish in a small pond' and 'small fish in a big pond'. The girls enjoy the whole ritual of the swimming pool - preparing the swimming bags, the £1 coins for the lockers, swimming goggles and floating woggles, and (most importantly) the chocolate bar reward at the end!
