Unfortunately, for many kids like these in Eleuthera, it’s not something they learn out right. A few years ago, One Eleuthera Foundation started the Eleuthera Primary School swimming program. It was a pilot rhat’s evolved into an on-going life saving program. The program is a collaboration between One Eleuthera, the Ministry of Education and the Connery Foundation. 400 family island children and some adults have benefitted over the last 5 years. And who knows, one of our future Olympians may be among this bunch. Even so, for now it’s helping to save lives.
