Year 6 Swimming - Info for Parents

Dear Parents/Carers,

As you know, year six will be going swimming after half term on Fridays. Recently, we asked you to let us know whether your child can swim 25 metres and whether you felt they needed further lessons. An overwhelming majority of you shared that your child either could swim 25m but you still wanted them to go swimming, or they couldn't swim.

With this in mind, all children will be invited to attend swimming lessons after Easter. If you feel strongly that you do not want your child to swim and they can already confidently swim 25m, they may attend poolside with a book but unfortunately there is not sufficient demand to warrant alternative provision in school. 

Mrs Smith, a TA who is an experienced swimming teacher, will also be accompanying the children.

Kind regards,

Miss E Wilson

Headteacher
