Swimming:

This term swimming will run from 31st of July until 18th of September. Children will leave school half an hour prior to their lesson time.  We require all students to participate in swimming as part of their learning for Term 3.  If your child is unable to swim on a particular day they will need to bring a note explaining why they can not participate. Thank you for your support with this.

Children will need to bring:

• togs/swimsuit
• towel
• P.E gear
• Plastic bag/swimming bag

Children are expected to arrive at school in their school uniform, not their P.E gear, even if they are swimming in the morning.
