Paul Sadler Swimland is extremely proud of its reputation for being the survival specialists. There have been hundreds of stories over the years of children who have saved themselves from dangerous situations with the skills taught at PSS.
Here's another great one:
The Ward family have been a loyal customer at Paul Sadler Swimland and having three children, Mitchell (8yrs), Brodie (5yrs) and Tahla (3yrs) having attended swimming lessons since they were 6 months old. Recently they had an experience with Tahla worth sharing that highlights the benefit of beginning lessons at an early age.
Her father Rod tells the story...
"Last year when Tahla was approximately 2 ¾ , we were at her Grandparents' house which has a pool. Tahla and her cousin, 3 ½ , got into the pool enclosure which is fenced. The gate was shut but not locked. We heard a splash, and may have got there in time to avoid a tradgedy, but thankfully it was okay, as Tahla, whilst frightened, managed to tread water and dog paddle to the side where she held on until help arrived. We've sat through over 500 lessons combined with our three kids they all paid off that day!"
