Swimming is useful to children in many ways. It not only strengthens the shoulder and thigh muscles, but also allows children to breathe deeply, and sustain breath under water for long periods of time. Realizing the importance of swimming for fun and as a sport, Oakridge International has built a large swimming pool on the school campus. Children are provided specific time slots and weekend slots for practice of swimming.
Swimming trainers offer swimming classes to children. The swimming pool is well maintained, filled with clean and temperature-regulated water. Every safety measure is taken to ensure that children of all ages enjoy swimming, most prominent being the floor, which has multiple height levels, to accommodate children of different heights.
