Swimming lessons

I just signed Caitlin up for swimming lessons

$110 for 10 lessons and both me and DH can go at the same time and it's covered in the fee. If she really doesn't like it after a couple of classes we can get a full refund and any time she's sick and we can't go we get a refund or have the class added on for the next term, I thought that was particularly good.

Now all I have to do is find a full body wet suit (with tummy control panel of course!) to wear and hope I don't get harpooned!

I am sure you wont get harpooned. Hope she enjoyes the lessons. I still want to sighn this one up as well.

Any one have any reccomedations for some whrere on the shore to do lessons?

I would like to start up next term.

Ok I'm feeling really silly here.... harpooned??

I like that they give refunds if you can't attend!

Ella loved the water from an early age, so I haven't bothered with lessons. I will get her proper lessons when she's around school age, as I can't swim and it sucks!

I was thinking of starting Brenna next term too, cause she'll be 6 months then.

Toni - that is so good that you can get refunded if Caitlin is sick. Have fun!!

We had to wait till 6 mths too - can't believe thats only 3 weeks away

I take Tyrell to West Wave and I am a little upset LOL to see you get a refund if she is sick! Tyrell wasn't allowed to go for 1 week with a sore ear, we only got it added to the next term....good way to get us back really.

Other than that it is fantastic and we both love it. I was shocked at the first class to see they put their head under....but we are both now used to it (Ok not so much the head under bit Tyrell still splutters)

I have to add I wear shorts and a singlet and feel pretty comfortable in that. There are so many people around the pool that they don't see you anyway they all have theirs heads on their own children. And the babies are in a special swim room.

The amount of men compared to women is huge and nice to see, out of 10 in our class there is 2 mummies!n Go the dads!

well didnt realise we had to wait six months...mum used to be a coach at tepid baths and i was "thrown in" at 6 weeks old..and grew up associating swimming with smoker lollies (the pink ones)....still smell them sometimes when swimming..

am def going to be taking Gabriella swimming before 6 months for sure...Dh wants her on the boat like last week!!! so need her used to water...

We were told that 9 months was for us which ella would be when the term starts.
