Stage 1 – Crab

Stage one is for any child over the aged of 5 that would be considered as a non swimmer.

By the end of Stage 1, children will be able to swim a width of the swimming pool using front crawl (6m). This means they will be able to get to the other side without touching the floor, and whilst correctly using the right technique.

They will also be able to do 3 bobs underwater, a star float on their front and back for 5 seconds, a shallow dive with a float and a star jump.
