Henry's Swimming Trial

Today was Henry's first swimming lesson. James managed to get Henry in on a trial for Level 2 swimmers.  Little Flippers swimming school is for babies as young as 12weeks all the way through to 5years. It's held on an equestrian property with a private pool only 10mins away off Bromley Common and the classes are nice and small. 

They start at Level 1 all the way through to Level 10 (or could be 12) so Henry starting at Level 2 is pretty good going! He was dunked under water for the second time in a while today. It was James who got in with him and James couldn't bring himself to dunk him but with the other babies being dunked and the teacher helping to guide James on the safest and most reassuring way to do it, he managed! 3 times :) 

We are en-rolling him for September term! Can't wait. Here's a few of the mountains of pics I took today.
