Swimming Program
Families should have received notification about the upcoming swimming program scheduled for March. The program is compulsory and forms part of the Victorian Curriculum and the students' learning.
Swimming and Water Safety fall under the curriculum area of Health and Physical Education. The Health and Physical Education curriculum includes four focus areas which have specific reference to swimming and water safety. These are:
- Fundamental movement skills
- Safety
- Lifelong physical activities
Development of knowledge and skills relating to survival swimming and basic water safety can significantly reduce a child’s drowning risk and enhance community safety.
Please ensure all relevant student information and permissions are completed as soon as possible. If you have any questions, please contact your child's teacher or myself.
Have wonderful week.
