This basically means he can do all the basics in a pool, such as blow bubbles, have water poured over your head, use a &#8216;noodle&#8217; to swim unaided. \u00a0Unfortunately, the Friday session that the boys go to doesn&#8217;t run a Stage 2, so we have had to move swimming days from Fridays to Mondays. So yesterday, Ben had his first Stage 2 lesson, which he mostly enjoyed but was worried when they let them loose in the main pool. He obviously couldn&#8217;t touch the floor and had no aids, so he was a little scared I think! He will get used to it though, with a bit more experience.<\/p>\n<p>For completing Stage 1, he got a certificate and a badge, so I got him to put on his swimming gear and pose for a pic! \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/bensblog.sgtworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/ben-stage1-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1342\" src=\"http:\/\/bensblog.sgtworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/ben-stage1-2-142x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"142\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bensblog.sgtworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/ben-stage1-2-142x300.jpg 142w, https:\/\/bensblog.sgtworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/ben-stage1-2.jpg 272w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 142px) 100vw, 142px\" \/>\u00a0<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/bensblog.sgtworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/ben-stage1-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1343\" src=\"http:\/\/bensblog.sgtworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/ben-stage1-1-199x300.jpg\" alt=\"ben-stage1-1\" width=\"199\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bensblog.sgtworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/ben-stage1-1-199x300.jpg 199w, https:\/\/bensblog.sgtworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/ben-stage1-1.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 199px) 100vw, 199px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After completing 4 lessons of Stage 1, Ben has now been moved up to Stage 2.
