Children will have their first experience of breathing underwater in a safe, supervised pool environment. This session introduces essential diving skills and water confidence through guided exercises and playful activities. It’s designed to make learning enjoyable while laying a foundation for future scuba training.
The session begins with an engaging briefing covering equipment familiarisation and safety rules. Children learn how each piece of scuba gear works and how to use it properly. The instructor demonstrates basic skills on the poolside before children enter the water.
Once in the pool, participants practise breathing through the regulator and adjusting their buoyancy. Exercises include simple underwater navigation, holding positions, and using hand signals to communicate with the instructor and peers. These activities are structured to build confidence gradually.
Later, children take part in playful challenges that reinforce skills, such as retrieving objects from the pool floor or swimming short distances using fins. The instructor provides continuous guidance and encouragement, ensuring every child progresses at their own pace. By the end, participants will have experienced safe underwater breathing, movement, and communication techniques.
