Foundation Swimming Program
Thank you to the parents who volunteered to help walk the students to and from Heather’s Swim School for the swimming lessons each Wednesday. The roster has been sent home. Could those parents please make sure the school has a copy of your Working With Children Check.
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).
Year 5 Swimming Program (PLEASE NOTE CHANGE OF SWIMMING DATES)
The Year 5 swimming program will take place over two weeks at Bluewater. The following days are when our Year 5’s will have their swimming lessons:
Monday 17th October, Wednesday 19th October , Thursday 20th October , Monday 24th October and Wednesday 26th October.
Lesson times will be as follows:
11.00 am - 11.30 am - 5RO
11.30 am – 12.00 pm - 5JR

The students will walk to and from swimming lessons, so we need parents to volunteer 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 Pound Road gate. If the weather is not suitable for walking, students will travel by bus. Helpers are required to have a Working With Children’s Check.
Could parents/guardians please indicate on the PAM swimming form if they
can assist?
Students need to wear their swim gear (bring them in a bag if they are one piece), a towel, goggles etc. Students 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. Students may like to wear their sports uniform on their swimming day.
