Swimming

Countries: Kenya

This project is truly rewarding because very few children in Africa get the chance to learn how to swim! You'll be based near the beautiful Island of Mombasa where it is important for children to learn to swim on account of their close proximity to the ocean and the dangers for non-swimmers. Swimming is seen as an elitist sport for tourists and the rich, but now you have the opportunity to bring this "elitist" sport to disadvantaged children - you will make a difference!

A unique experience perfect for anyone who loves swimming. You will teach all ages at a local school set amongst stunning scenery. Children on the whole do not get the chance to learn how to swim so this is your opportunity to really make a difference. You will be introduced to the Principal and the Swimming Coach on your first day and they will discuss your coaching programme with you. Your first point of contact will be the swimming coach and he will help you with different techniques and tips and give you a timetable after the first couple of days. Not only will you be giving invaluable life skills to the children, your involvement with these great children will bring immense satisfaction and enjoyment!
