Athletics Carnival - Friday 2nd August

This week we have started a mini “Olympics” for our House Teams during our sport lessons. At the end of next week, we will see which colour has the most points!

Thank you for being accommodating with the cancellation of last weeks Athletics Carnival due to weather.  Athletics Day will be held at school on Friday 2nd August.  

This will help prepare us for District Athletics, which will be held on Thursday 5th September.

The Year 5-6 Swimming Program has started and will finish on Thursday 8th August. 

The Prep- Year 2 Swimming Program will start on Monday 26th August and finish on Thursday 5th September. 

Looking forward to a fun week ahead!

Year 5/6 Swimming Program

As part of our Physical Education Program, Swimming lessons will be conducted for Years 5 and 6 students in Term 3. 

All students will be involved in an intensive Swimming Program over 8 days at Aquastar Swim School – 24 Arco Lane, Heatherton 3202.

Lessons will be 45 minutes duration. Your child will have swimming lessons each school day commencing on Monday 29th July 2024 and concluding on Thursday 8th August 2024. There will be no swimming lesson on Friday 2nd August.

All students are required to wear swimming caps in the pool (unless sensory issues makes this too difficult). It is also strongly advised that students wear goggles to provide for a better swimming experience. 

Lessons are part of the Physical Education Curriculum and all children are expected to participate in the Swimming Program. 

Any child who does not participate in the program must have a doctor's certificate and will be expected to attend the pool. They will travel on the bus to the pool with the rest of their class.

The cost of the Swimming Program is  $130 and  has been included on your yearly statement.                       

Thank you,
