Our annual program for children in grades 3-5 is approaching and will be held at the Hagley Swimming Pool.

Please remember to have your child equipped with the appropriate attire and prepared to swim on day one. I strongly encourage all students involved to fully commit to attending this compulsory swimming, life-saving and fitness - developing program.

Grade 3-4 Hill and 3 Glen are to wear their bathers under their school uniform. This is in line with COVID-19 use of the change rooms at the pool.

Every day counts! Being confident in and around aquatic environments is a very important life skill.

You will need: Bathers, Towel, Plastic bag (for wet bathers, towel etc.), Goggles (can be taken but will be used sparingly during the program), School jumper - to put on when leaving the pool.

Please remember that if your child regularly accesses the canteen on Thursdays and Fridays, the above timetable may have an effect on recess and lunchtime ordering. These times include travel times, so they are the times that students will be off site.

To follow with COVID-19 guidelines, no spectators will be able to attend. Students will not have PE during this fortnight.
