Year 4 Swimming Lessons -Hard copies to come out today 5/9/245 September 2024 (by Ashlea Stevenson (ashlea.stevenson)) |
Year 4 swimming lessons arrangements commencing Monday 9th September 2024
We have been able to secure swimming lessons for all our Year 4 children as part of their PE lessons this academic term.
Apologies that we are only confirming these arrangements at the start of the school term, but we always have to wait for confirmation of timetabling and swimming slots before we can issue information that we have been able to secure which cannot be provided until late into the summer holidays.
Lessons take place at The Abbs Cross Sports Centre, which is within easy walking distance from Elm Park Primary School. The children will be escorted to the pool by adults and they will all be wearing a high visibility jacket.
Larch class will be attending 1-2pm
Maple class will be attending 2-3pm
Please be aware that the above timings may be subject to change based on the Abbs Cross requirements. However, we will give you as much notice as possible.
Your child will need to bring their swimming kit – swimming shorts or swimming costume (NO bikinis or swim shorts that are knee length) and a swimming hat and a towel in a bag on the day of their swimming session. If your child does not have a swimming hat, they can be purchased from the school office at a cost of £1.50 and will be available from Monday 9th September (cash only).
If it is necessary for your child to wear swimming goggles, you will need to sign a consent form as there are rules and guidelines of which you should be aware. Consent forms must be given to the office by Monday 9th September 2024, 9.00am. You can access the consent form by clicking on the link in the School Jotter.
The children should wear their PE kit when attending swimming sessions.
If there are any medical concerns that staff need to be made aware of in relation to your child attending swimming lessons, then please contact their class teacher in the first instance by email.
I hope your child enjoys this opportunity to develop his/her ability and confidence in the water.
