Swimming

Diving In

Swimming is a foundational piece—and a highlight—of every Horizons program. With swim lessons three times each week in Westminster’s pool, our students not only learn a life-saving skill, but they also build resilience and confidence that transfers into the classroom and beyond.


Benefits of learning to swim:
  • Promotes mental and physical health
  • Ensures safety when children are in and around the water
  • Encourages attention to detail and commitment to a goal
  • Teaches resilience as students overcome obstacles and fears
  • Inspires a healthy lifestyle
  • Introduces a competitive sport
