At MJSA, we are huge advocates of learning through play! Scientists say it takes roughly 400 repetitions for a child to learn a new skill, whereas learning through play can achieve this in 10-20 repetitions!









In our lessons we use a scheme of work to ensure that a fully inclusive program which can at the appropriate times be games based, is being taught and children are always working towards the numerous learning objectives within their stage. We believe it is important for our swimmers to associate their learning with play to be able to thrive and get the most out of their swimming lessons.
We hope you learnt a little bit about the importance of learning through play from this post! You could even try these fun games to promote learning of the essential swimming skills outside of lessons the next time you are at the pool together
