Bubbles and Breath Control
75% of the World is Covered With Water,
so it’s Essential That 100% of Kids Learn to Swim!
Lakes, pools, rivers and parks… water is a 24/7/365 presence in our environment and kids are drawn to it.
And since your children are your most precious possessions… you want them to be safe, confident and responsible in and around water.
You can understand why, at The Swim School at Kids First we believe swimming is more than just a sport, it’s an ESSENTIAL LIFE SKILL and an absolute must for all children.
