Can you swim? Can your child swim? If they do then send them to Mrs Matthews and we’ll see if they have the ability to participate in the Interhouse Galas! Just make sure you can swim first before you attend…
You can read more about swimming in this letter which was sent home recently –> swimming letter (you can also find this on our documents page)
How do I get my child started?
Start by sending the tear off slip back to school. You can find this document above if you’ve lost the original or check the documents page. Swimming starts on the 23rd January 2012!
No tear-off slip – no swimming!
Times
The bus will leave at 13:45 and take everyone to the swimming pool at Birchleigh (all children have to go on the bus because this ensures we can keep track of every child attending) This also means that if you are in Grade 1, 2 or 3 you must wait in waiting class until 13:45. The bus will be back at around 15:15
Public Pool
Yip the Kempton Public Pool is in fact empty and in the process of repairs 🙁 However The swimming coaches have made arrangements with Birchleigh Swimming Pool so thanks to the swimming girls & boys for that! 🙂
Costumes
At this stage any appropriate costume will do. We will inform you about any changes at a later stage.
