Mini Monkeys
For the past year I have been running a pilot study looking at the possibility of introducing very young children to the basics of diving without going in the pool! This has been achieved by following a programme of simple exercises, based on the Chinese system, with a fun approach and has been a great success.
I am now planning a new course starting in October 2007 and would like to offer your child an opportunity to take part.
Children aged 4 – 6 years will be invited to take part in an initial assessment, to check that they have the appropriate physical potential together with sufficient concentration span to benefit from the scheme.
The assessment will take place on Sunday 30th September at 9.30am. Please arrive for registration at 9.15am, followed by a short talk for parents at 9.20am. The cost for this session will be £2. A car parking permit will be provided at the registration desk.
A maximum of 12 children will be selected to “train” on Sundays from 9.30 – 10.30am. There will be a total of 4 sessions in October and November, costing £32 for the course.
If your child would be interested in taking part in the trial for this unique opportunity, please complete the attached slip and return to the Quays reception as soon as possible and no later than Wednesday 26th September.
If you have any additional questions about the group please contact me: 023 8072 0922 / lindsey.fraser@southampton.gov.uk or Annie Clewlow 07910 300232 / Annie.Clewlow@southampton.gov.uk.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Yours sincerely
