Students need to wear their bathers to school under their uniform (no board shorts replacing school shorts please). We suggest girls wear one piece bathers rolled down beneath their uniform for easy bathroom access.
Students will need to bring a separate swimming bag to school each day containing the following:
- Towel
- Goggles
- Underwear
- “Quick shoes” (crocs, slides or thongs)
- Plastic bag for wet items
***Please ensure all items are labelled with your child’s full name***
Students must wear their normal school shoes/runners to school (this includes Year 6 students). Before boarding the bus they will be asked to put on their “quick shoes” to make changing at the pool more efficient.
The second last day of the program (Thursday 23rd November) will be water safety day. All students will need bring an old T-shirt to wear over the top of their bathers on this day.

Hats
We have many students coming to school without a sunsmart hat to wear outside at recess and lunch and during PE sessions.
Students without a hat will be required to remain in a designated shaded area.
