In this class they will be developing good body positioning, strong flutter kicks on their front and back and the overarm freestyle. They will also learn additional skills such as dolphin kicking, somersaults, treading water and diving in deep water. Children will be advanced to Platypus when they are six of age or to Dolphin when they have achieved the promotion skills.
