BPPS Water Safety Program

In order to ensure that our students are improving their awareness around the water, all grades next week will be participating in a virtual water safety program. This 50 minute session will be delivered via Zoom by two qualified swimming instructors from Boroondara Sports Complex where engaging and interactive water safety content will be discussed. This program will be no cost to families, with all expenses to be covered by department funding. The timing of this program couldn't be better given many of our children will be visiting the beach and swimming pools during the Summer holidays after a year of very little swimming exposure. Please contact your child's classroom teacher or myself if you have any queries.

This Week in PE......

A reminder to make sure that your child brings a drink bottle to each lesson.

Students will be focusing on the following topics over the next two sessions:

• Foundation - Gymnastics
• Year 1/2 - Gymnastics
• Year 3/4 - Gymnastics
• Year 5/6 - Gymnastics / Fitness

Don't forget that children aged between 5 and 12 years of age should be aiming for at least 60 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity each day.
