Students participate in a weekly Swimming program in our 12-meter hydrotherapy pool, which is heated to 34 ° C. The Swimming program provides a safe and stimulating environment for students to relax, to increase their range of movement and flexibility, improve co-ordination and postural control.
Students develop self confidence, social skills and basic swimming techniques through sensory activities, games, music and the use of a range of flotation aids.
The pool is equipped with a ramp and we have modified pool chairs to facilitate the transfer of students into the pool. Our heated change rooms are equipped with ceiling hoists and height adjustable tables. Students may also participate in a dressing program with occupational
therapists
support during their swimming session.
