Swimming lessons.
I’m a Red Cross Certified Swim Instructor.Today I taught swimming from 2:30-5:00 P.M. I filled in for another instructor and taught Bibs and Bubbles (infants with Parent) and Aqua tots A Aqua Tots B, a mixed group of kids (most of them I’d place in level 2). I had a lot of fun, and I got to give individual attention to this one little girl that kept saying “I blow big bubbles” she was so cute! Swimming is a great after school activity, it keeps you entertained and teaches you how to be safe in water. Teaching swimming is a great job if you like kids and like to play games, sing songs and make lots of bubbles! Click HERE to find out more about Red Cross Swimming

| Sports Person of the Week – Paul Westin | |||
| Published on Friday, October 24, 2008 | |||
Born in Manitoba, Canada and a Caymanian by his grandmother, Margaret Webster, Paul Westin is the son of Peter and Loretta Westin. He has lived in Cayman for seven years with five brothers and two sisters. A product of home schooling, he says, “Algebra is my favourite subject, (and) I like that I get to travel, because I can do my schoolwork anywhere.” Westin played football for St. Ignatius until this year, “but now my rugby practices are on the same days. I also play baseball. Last year, we were football League Champions and Cup runners up. I played baseball in July on a travelling under-14 Cayman team at a tournament in Orlando.” Although a true athlete of many sports, he says, “rugby is very important to me. I am hoping to get good enough to make the national team. My favourite position is outside centre because it’s right in the action.” He adds: “I mostly watch World Cup‚ football (soccer) and NHL hockey on TV. My favorite hockey team is the Montreal Canadiens. I guess if I was in Canada I’d be playing hockey, too.” |
