Term 1 Swimming for Year 1 to Year 6
Our students participate in swimming lessons in term 1 and term 4. Students swimming lessons will begin:
Week 3 - Monday 10 February, 2025
Swimming takes place as part of our H.P.E program. This year to enhance the quality of lessons we provide students, swimming lessons will be held:
- 60 minute lesson each week in Year 1 and Year 2 and
- 60 minute lesson each fortnight in Years 3 – 6.
There is a consent form to complete in QParents. Please complete this by Friday 7 February.
We do have teacher aides who support in the pool however, we also need parent volunteers to adhere to safety requirements. If you are available to volunteer for swimming supervision, even for one lesson, please let your child’s teacher know. Supervision does not mean you must get into the pool and swim, but you can choose to support students in the pool. We always require extra adults to watch that our students are safe.
As a safety precaution, and as a last resort, we may cancel a swimming lesson if we do not have enough adult supervision. We are looking forward to the fun and success that our students will experience in the pool this term!
If you need anything clarified about swimming for the term, please reach out to your child’s class teacher.
Kind regards,
Lynley Williams Justin Beveridge
