At St. Anthony Nursery and Primary Schools, we believe swimming is one of the best forms of exercise as it works on every part of the body without putting muscles and joints on stress. It is essential that every child learns to swim, especially to be water safe and secure. We introduced swimming to our pupils early in life so that it helps them to improve on their overall physical and mental health.
Augustine Wabbi, the Schools Head Teacher said that swimming is conducted in different groups of a similar ability and age which helps the learners to have fun with their friends and learn valuable social skills. This also helps them to become strong, safe and aware of the surrounding environment. He said swimming is part of the weekly routine for the school as the Importance of learning to swim & how to remain safe in and around water cannot be overemphasized.
