Kinder - Grade 2 Water Skills and Awareness Program
The annual Water Skills and Awareness Program for Kinder - Grade 2 students will commence in mid-November in our portable pool and run over 4 weeks. The Grade 1-2 program will commence on Monday, 16th November and run till Friday, 27th November. This will be followed by our Kinder - Prep program from Monday, 30th November - Friday 11th December.
Our Austswim instructor for the program has requested that all students wear swimming caps. Swimming caps assist in maintaining body heat (brought about by heat escaping from the scalp) and maintaining a good water quality. The cap prevents long hair from interfering with breathing and vision, as well as saving students from returning to class with wet hair.
Students whose parents pre-ordered a swimming cap will be allocated their cap on the first day of swimming – please confirm with the office if you are unsure whether you ordered. Should any other students still wish to purchase a cap, they are now available from the office for $2.00 each.
A letter with your child's swimming time will be sent home with Grade 1-2 students today. Kinder and Prep letters will follow in coming weeks.
Payment prior to the commencement of your child's program would be appreciated. Please contact the office if you need to make other arrangements.
