The Department of Education Swimming and Water Safety Program for all Grade 3-5 students commences at the Burnie Aquatic Centre on Monday, 16th November for two weeks, concluding on Friday 27th November.  Fees for this program are not invoiced separately, as per the early childhood program, but were included in levies at the start of the year.

Notices, along with consent and medical forms, were distributed last week and contain further information about the program and what students will need to bring every day - please contact the school office if you did not receive one for your child.  It is essential that forms are completed and returned prior to the commencement of the program.

It is Department of Education policy that all students wear swimming caps during the program.  All STAS students will be allocated a cap at no charge before the program starts.   Swimming caps are available now to purchase for $2.00 from the school office.
