Why is it important to learn how to swim:

 Why is it important to learn how to swim:


It is important to learn to swim because you won’t drown or sink, swimming is good exercise and it is fun.


You have to learn how to swim because if you're in the ocean and the waves push you to the far sea, or you get caught in a rip, you won't know what to do and you might drown. Water Safety NZ explains that 82 people drowned in NZ in 2019, 68 people in 2018 and 92 in 2017. Those people wouldn't have drowned if they knew how to swim.


Swimming is a great form of exercising. Why? Because  swimming can help your legs and arms. Also because it's a great sport because it can make you more fitter with your arms and legs.

Swimming is good for old and injured people because it helps their muscles grow at the same time as not putting pressure on their knees and hips.


Why is fun to swim:

It's fun because you can go to a river, waterfall or a beach and swim with your family and friends and you get to have lots of fun. Also you can have picnics and eat kai!!


Swimming is a great skill to have in life!!
