Swim star

Abi is a bit of a star pupil in her Turtles swim class. While her classmate was crying and running away, Abi willingly and confidently dog paddled with face into the water, jumped into the pool from the edge, did back float in star position without the swim bubble etc. (She also practised these in her free swim time.) Her teacher Susan was so impressed that she called another admin staffer to watch Abi, then this person told Priscilla that Abi can progress up 2 levels next term instead of one, to the Tadpoles instead of Jellyfish. Parents and grandparents were excited, child unaffected. Child keeps asking to jump off the one metre diving board as she did with Susan at the end of last term! Next week she may be able to.
