We are swimming in the pool at Mlynska Dolina. The water temperature is 27.5 degrees, which is the highest possible temperature due to hygienic rules.
The majority of children are coping with it really well, however if you think your child gets cold easily, especially younger children from Reception and Year 1, please give them a wet-suit/neoprene. You can buy it in shops like Sports Direct and Decathlon or directly at the swimming pool.
Our professional team has been doing an excellent job. In the first week pupils were split into groups according to their abilities. All year groups are following a special aquatic programme, to progress and develop their swimming techniques further.
The most important thing for us is to see happy, confident children in the water, which has been happening in our lessons.
