2019 Physical Education Swimming Program Terms 1 and Term 4
Years 1 to 6 only
Dear Parents and Carers,
Our Term 1 Physical Education Swimming Program commences week 2 of this term (Wednesday 6 February, Thursday 7 February and Friday 8 February). Term 4 dates are advised in Term 3.
Please note that this is an important and enjoyable part of our school program and it is intended that all children participate. Students may only be excused from a swimming lesson for reasons of illness or injury that preclude them from being able to take part on a particular day.
Our program has been designed in accordance with the Austswim and curriculum guidelines. We will be providing up to three qualified swim instructors for all swimming lessons. This will enable us to focus on safety and supervision, ensure a separation of roles and responsibilities, and provide greater flexibility within lessons. To support the program and ensure excellent adult-to-child ratios we request a modest contribution for swimming lessons.
