23 - 29 April 2012
Today was the first day of the first week of the first of three two week swim courses, involving over 60 children and just as many hours spent in the water for Simon and Justine. The annual kindergarten swim course didn't take place last year because of Simon's back and since there is no other local provision there is now a glut of non- swimmers and the course has been extended to include the school children too. Some of the 5 year olds stepped into a pool for the first time today. In a land-locked mountainous country it seems it is considered more important to be able to ski than swim. Just like skiing it is a joy to teach.
