I have a question about swimming ability if someone could please help me out. What swimming or water activities is involved in ground school?
I can swim 50m but I'm not a confident swimmer so I am a bit worried. Thanks!
Hi Maria, no need to stress, I'm not the greatest swimmer at all....but as long as you can swim the 50m, your swim style or time is not an issue. The 3 min treading water was easier than I thought. Just get into a calm rhythm and you'll be fine. The lifeguard who did mine chatted to me for the three minutes while I was treading water which seemed to take my mind off it, and the three minutes flew by. No need to stress. Good luck 😊
