I have to admit to a strong feeling of envy when I see youngsters being so "brave" in the water and I wouldn't dare look when a little one dove from that diving board!!!
Here I am at 74 and unable to swim. I did try when I was in my 40s but I have a real fear of the
water and my bottom had a tendency to sink when attempting to learn! On the very rare occasion when I have been into a pool I have been terrified by small children jumping in the water anywhere near me - they're so brave and I'm such a coward.

They're brave kids, especially Molly diving off that board!
Sounds like they're having a great time learning all the different strokes.
Bonjour.
Quoi de mieux que d'aller à la piscine quand le temps est à la canicule ?!
Hop ! En maillot de bain et une tête dans l'eau fraîche...
Bisous.
I remember going to that pool every summer while growing up (at least once I moved here). I was only brave enough to do the high board once, and that was enough for me. Kudos to Molly for being a braver girl then I'll ever be.
My mother was a good swimmer and taught me to swim when I was very young. Young enough that I don't remember not being able to swim. Likewise, I taught my kids to swim very early. None of them was particularly afraid of the water.
Jumping off the high board is another matter. I could swim, but I was not a diver. The best I could manage was a feet first "cannonball".
Now you were the sort of kid I hated when I went to the pool. Totally fearless "feet first cannonballer" making a huge splash so that water got on my face!
