swimming a must for all children

Hi All

Most nights and weekends you will found me sitting my the side of a pool watching my three children swim. Most weeks between them they swim about 17 hours. Now I am not saying all kids should swim to this level but I do believe all kids should be able to swim.

I started to write this blog when I saw on a friends facebook page a notice to say the drowning is the third most common cause of accidental death in children but 1/5 of children leave school without being able to swim.!!!

Now when you search this on goggle schools are being blamed for cutting budgets and by not offering school lessons anymore.

But is it really the school fault???

As parents we decided that all our children needed to be able to swim, its a life skill you need.

So when my oldest started swimming lessons by husband did too as he was unable to swim at the time.

All my kids hated swimming lessons and all cried when being taken but we made them go.

Are we bad parents for this?? I don't think so.

They all love swimming now and swim for a club even the youngest who is 6, hopefully they will all enjoying it for life.

Get your kids to swimming lessons.

david beckham retires

I have read today that David Beckham will retire from football at the end of this season, this will be the third Manchester united person in the same week.



Although I am not a football fan I do understand for David Beckham to retire from something you love at the age of 38 must be hard. 



I know lots of sports people need to retire at a very young age . He his luckier than most as money will not be a problem but be stop something that his been a massive part in your life is tough. 



Work at its best should be something you love and enjoy but so few people ever get to experience this.
