Keep Swim Skills Up

BRRR, it’s cold outside, but not at Dolphins. At Dolphins Health Precinct, the pools are heated all year round with the hydro pool sitting at a lovely 33ºC and a lap pool at 29ºC. 

The air temperature is also maintained at a comfortable 26ºC, making swimming the ideal exercise throughout the winter months. 

Learn to swim lessons started on April 15 but children can join in any time throughout the term. 

“Skills need year-round reinforcement to stay current. Swimming is taught by repetition, pulling your children in and out of lessons throughout the year will not benefit their progression,” said Sandra Hegarty, Learn to Swim Coordinator at Dolphins Health Precinct. “Continuity of learn to swim lessons plays a crucial part in building the foundations of water safety protection and skill for children.”

To assist children to learn how well they are progressing on their Learn to Swim journey, Dolphins Health Precinct Learn to Swim program consists of 12 levels. The different levels, each represented by a named Dolphin character, mark a different and significant stage in the learning process. 

The Learn to Swim year consists of four terms to coincide with QLD school terms. Certificates are awarded to Learn to Swim students who partake in Safety Week and/or term certificates. Safety Week is a dedicated week each term that is Governed by Royal Life Saving. Upon successful completion of the Royal Life Saving Swim & Survive program, each participant is awarded a certificate.

10 Tips to Make Your Diet Stick

1. Try new foods. It’s the new year so choose one a month. Try it 10 times and you will like it. Become familiar with smell, taste, texture and flavour. The wider the range of foods you eat, the more nutrients you will be ingesting.

2. Reward and recognise your achievements. Focus on the positive. Use the strategies that kept you on track to help implement the next challenge.

3. Get started straight away. Ban procrastination. This time next year you'll have wish you started sooner!

4. Set yourself up to succeed. Identify the challenges and find the solutions to overcome them. Write down the strategies you will use. Don’t leave it to chance.

5. Choose a time and day to shop. Write it down in your diary so you don’t end up with a bare fridge.

6. Divide up tasks. Take it in turns to cook, shop and wash up so it isn’t an overwhelming task.

7. Have frozen meals ready to defrost. That way you won’t have to resort to unhealthy takeaway options.

8. Allow some treats. But don’t go overboard. Have one scoop of ice-cream rather than two, gourmet yoghurt on berries rather than cream, fresh fruit with a few squares of dark chocolate.

9. Modify your cooking methods. For example, try oven-baked potatoes brushed with oil rather than deep-fried chips. Crumb your schnitzel and brown in the pan with a little oil, then finish dry-baking in the oven.

10. Make an appointment with yourself for activity. Start at a pace you can continue with, for example, walk three days a week at lunchtime and twice a week after work rather than walking every day at 5am, which you know you won’t continue in winter.
