Foundation Swimming Program
Our three Foundation classes will start their swimming lessons this Wednesday 5th October. The swimming program will go for ten weeks. Please make sure you have filled in the permission form on PAM.
The lesson times will be as follows:
11.30 am – 12.00 noon – FMD
12.00 noon – 12.30 pm – FME
12.30 pm – 1.00 pm - FSN
The children will walk to and from swimming lessons, so thank you to the parents who have volunteered to walk with the class teacher and the children each week. Each class will leave the school 30 minutes before the commencement of their swimming lesson. They will leave from the prep gate. If the weather is not suitable for walking, a bus will be booked, and it will leave from Pound Road (near the gym). Helpers are required to have a current Working With Children’s Check.
Children need to wear their swim gear (bring them in a bag if they are one piece), a towel, goggles etc. Children need to have their swimming gear in a separate swim bag to their school bag. Please make sure that everything is clearly labelled, even their shoes. Children may like to wear their sports uniform on their swimming day.
