As this week’s meet the teacher meeting has been postponed I will outline the details on this page and discuss them in further detail at the next meeting.

Water Fun

  • As a result of recent studies about the level of fitness and the lack of water safety for young children we aim to tackle these problems with our water fun sessions.
  • Every Mon we will take a small group of children to The Triangle Pool for 1 hour water fun sessions with a qualified instructor. There will be two adults supporting children in the shallow end of the pool. The sessions are aimed to improve fitness, help children become more confident in the water and aware of the need for safety around water.
  • The children will be transported by school minibus.
  • There is no charge for the sessions as school is subsidising the activity.
  • The sessions will start the week of the 13th of January.
  • A letter will be sent home providing more details. When it is your child’s turn to attend the sessions you will receive the letter and will be asked to send in costumes and a towel.

Water Fun Letter

I will send this letter out as soon as possible so you are aware of what dates your child is swimming but the details are of the letter are outlined below. If you are unable to find swim wear, hat or a towel please let me know as I have spare sets.

Letter Details

Your child will change into their swimming kit at school and will be transported to and from the swimming pool by the school minibus. During the sessions your child will be accompanied by school staff and a swimming instructor. Your child will change back into their school uniform (please ensure everything is labelled). Your child will return to school ready for home time pick up.

Please ensure your child brings a fresh swimming kit every Monday. Your child needs to bring a swimming hat, suitable swimwear and an appropriately sized towel. Girls will be required to wear a well fitted, one piece swimming costume, with secure shoulder straps. Boys need a pair of swimming trunks.

If you have any further questions please don’t hesitate to ask.

Many thanks

Miss Scott
