23.01.2022 We have smiling swimmers, grumpy swimmers, tired swimmers, splashy babies... and children that just do not want to get their face wet!! That's ok.... We do take... water familiarisation slowly and at a pace appropriate to your child. We will NEVER submerge a child who is not ready. But there may be a reason why and there are some things that you can do at home to help. Some children may be hesitant to put their face near water because of physical reasons (hypersensitivity, retained reflexes or vestibular challenges), emotional reasons (trust or a previous negative experience) or developmental (just not ready, expectations are greater than ability). Our teachers will assist with determining what the cause may be and working to create a trusting relationship with your child and their relationship with water. At home... use the cue 'name, ready, go' with any water familiarisation activities. Your teacher will assist you with activities from a wet hand through to a cup of water through to submersion. For very sensitive children an idea is to 1. Cut one face cloth into 1/2, then one half into half again; so you have 1 full face cloth / 1 half & 2 quarters 2. Starting with one 1/4 piece, ask the child to wipe their face; watch how they do this - tentative, soft, resistant? 3. Continue using the 1/4 piece each day, encourage the child to stroke it over their face* / getting the 1/4 progressively wetter each day - stay using the 1/4 until the child is comfortable & relaxed 4. Repeat the process with the 1/2 piece & then the full face cloth - the 1/2 will cover more of their face with each stroke so observe their reaction to the increased face coverage & wetness each time. Pool Exercise Use a parent's finger as a candle - 'blow the candle out' start with the candle above the water / then under Use a filled bucket / a dive ring for the child to hold so they can meet the water half way - they are in control Play with water from above with a watering can - using vision & hands. Push empty can upside down into the water & turn it towards the child so the bubbles shoot upwards. Encourage child to feel bubbles with their chin / lips* Our teachers are always here to assist you and advise you on techniques and ideas. If a child is not showing signs of aquatic readiness, do not submerge them.

16.01.2022 What would your child do if they fell into a pool? We hear stories of our little swimmers accidently falling in the pool and turning and reaching for the side - saving themselves because that is what they practice each week! Whilst we all hope that this never happens and supervision is essential - it can happen.... Our Baby and Toddler classes focus on FUN whilst teaching lifesaving skills and progressing your child's water familiarisation skills. Tuesday afternoons and Saturday mornings at Mirage Country Club Port Douglas Aqua Bubs - From 4-14 months Aqua Tots from 14 months - 3 years Transition Tots (without a parent in the water) from 2.5 years https://app.iclasspro.com/portal/cmeswimschool www.cmeswim.com.au

15.01.2022 PORT DOUGLAS FAMILIES- - MIRAGE COUNTRY CLUB POOL CLOSED Dear our Port Douglas Familes, It is with a very heavy heart that we will end TERM 1 LESSONS IN PORT DOUGLAS immediately due to the closure of the Mirage Country Club pool until we all come out the other side of this COVID- 19 crisis. All that matters now is that everyone stays well both physically and emotionally. Please be assured that it is our intention to resume as soon as it is possible and safe to do so. We all... want our children swimming and back to normal routine as soon as possible. We will keep in touch as this unfolds and we all come to terms with how long and to what extent it will affect us. We could not ask for a better team and customer family. Thank you for your support and understanding over these difficult weeks and be assured that you will receive full future credit for classes affected by the closure. Stay safe everyone and please do your best to keep smiling and holding one another up. We will all get through this! Bill and Simone and the C-Me Swim Port Douglas Team
