Swimming 15 hours - ACTION

ACTION

Start: January 2013

Finish: November 2013

Hours Collected: 15



Between the months of January 2013 and November 2013 I took swimming lessons on a Saturday morning with Zoe Entecott, ASA  licensed swimming teacher, for 30 half an hour lessons.

How did I increase awareness of my strengths and areas for growth?

 Swimming highlighted my lack of fitness, but I was quite confident in the water.

How did I undertake new challenges?

   I have not done swimming at school for a good couple of years, and I hated them, so swimming lessons was something to be endured rather than enjoyed. However, Zoe was very patient and I began to enjoy myself.

How did I plan and initiate activities?

   This criteria didn't really come into this activity, although I instigated the lessons with Zoe.

How did I work collaboratively with others?

    Working collaboratively with Zoe, as she was my teacher was integral. She found ways of increasing my stamina that I had to put into practise. 

How did I show perseverance and commitment on my activity?

   I completed 30 Saturday morning lessons, when I would rather have been in bed!

How did I engage with issues of global importance?

   I did not really engage with issues of global importance within this activity.

How did I consider the ethical implications of my actions?

    I went to a public school, and my lessons supported the public swimming pool.

How did I develop new skills?

   My level of fitness was increased by this activity.
