Width Lessons
Please do not ask your teacher if your child can attend a ‘double lesson’ in widths.
The lesson is planned with warm up, main and a fun element at the end.
It is not effective for the swimmers to have one full lesson, and then start the same lesson again.
If you are paying for two or more lessons, there are four days that your child may attend lessons in.
Thank you for your help with this.
