Class Noticeboard

Swimming
We would like to inform you about year 3’s upcoming swimming lessons.

As part of the National Curriculum, all children must be taught to swim competently, confidently, and proficiently over a distance of at least 25 metres, use a range of strokes effectively and perform a safe self-rescue. To enable the children to work towards these requirements, we have booked two lanes with three specialist teachers at the River Bourne Health Club.

Lessons will occur on a Wednesday afternoon. The first session will take place on Wednesday, 25th February and continue every week until the final session on Wednesday, 20th May.

The first class will leave school following afternoon registration and will begin their swimming lesson at 1:45 pm. This lesson will then conclude at 2:15 pm. The second class will arrive prepared to start at 2:15 pm and will finish at 2:45 pm, ensuring the children can be collected, as usual, from school.

The children will need a one-piece swimsuit, towel, swimming goggles and swimming hat in a named bag. The children are also asked to wear their PE kits to school on a Wednesday to make getting changed easier. As we will be walking to and from the River Bourne, children will also require appropriate outdoor clothing and a hat to wear on their return as their hair will be damp and it may be cold.

Finally, we would greatly appreciate some weekly parental help. If you are available, please email your child's teacher. With lessons starting soon, if you could inform your child’s teacher as soon as possible, this would be appreciated.
