The pool has been cleaned and is ready for use after half-term. Therefore we hope to start swimming on Monday 2 June – weather permitting. After discussion it has been decided that Nursery children will not participate in this activity.
Classes GM, DB, KG and GH have decided not to use the school’s pool this year as they have done deep water swimming at Framlingham College.
Please could you make arrangements for your children to have swimming equipment ready to bring to school after half-term: swimming costume and swim hat; a towel and footwear to get to and from the pool. Goggles should not be worn in our pool, which is generally well balanced as far as chlorine and acid levels are concerned. If your child really has an eye irritation we must have a letter from you stating the reasons why your child must wear goggles. Accidents have happened in school pools because of goggles snapping back on eyes. To avoid the perennial problem of the small tiles in the swimming pool acting like pumice stones on tender feet, parents may like their children to wear socks or close fitting ‘swimming’ shoes (usually sold for use on a stony beach). We feel ‘jelly’ shoes would not be acceptable as they would be too restrictive.
Swimming hats (£1.00) and swimming bags (£1.80) are available from the school office.
Please ensure all items are named.
Children should take swimwear and towels home every time they are used. In this event, to help with the washing, parents may find it helpful to have a second set in reserve.
SWIMMING HELPERSWe can only hold swimming lessons if we get enough parent helpers. Children need support with dressing and young children must be escorted to and from the pool. The teacher must stay by the pool at all times to be with the children within the fence perimeter. Younger children must have an adult in the pool with them. Each teacher is arranging their own timetable of help so if you can spare 1, 2 or 3 hours please indicate on the timetable overleaf and pass to the relevant teacher. Please try to keep to a committed time, or find a replacement. Thank you.
