PREPARING FOR SWIMMING LESSONS


Dear Parents / Carers
Our 2023 Swimming Program will commence on the Monday of Week 8, 27 November 2023, at the Aquatic Academy
on Best Road, Seven Hills. All students will be attending the swimming program.
The swimming lessons will be EVERY DAY between Monday 27th November and Friday 8th December (Weeks 8 and
9). The lessons are scheduled between 9:20am and 2:00pm each day. The first group will leave on the bus at 8:50am. It
is very important that all students are at school on time every day, particularly Year 6 who depart school prior to the bell.
The children can wear their swimming costumes to school under their uniform and bring a separate labelled bag
containing:
● A towel
● Underwear
● T shirt to wear to the pool (essential)
● Thongs/sandals/crocs/other footwear to be worn on the bus to and from the pool (essential)
● Goggles (optional)
● Swimming cap (optional) to keep hair dry and out of their eyes
Please remember:
● No board shorts or T-shirts are allowed in the pool
● Long hair must be tied back or in a swimming cap
● Any students with any sores, open wounds or cuts need to ensure they are completely covered
Your child can wear either their full school uniform OR sport uniform for the swimming days. As the swimming
program is for ten days in a row, the washing of uniforms can become difficult. The children will be leaving their uniform,
school socks and shoes at school. They will be travelling on the bus directly to the Aquatic Academy in their swimming
costumes, t-shirt, thongs/sandals and towel. They will return to school immediately after their swimming lesson. At the
start and end of each lesson they will rinse off in a shower.
The children will change back into their school uniform at school. Please remember to label all items of clothing,
towels and footwear. If your child uses goggles, they are easy to misplace, so please remember to label them as well.
All children are expected to participate in the swimming program. On any swimming day, if your child is too sick to swim,
please send a note to your child’s class teacher. They will be travelling to and from the pool with their class, but will not
participate in the lesson.
Parents may watch the swimming lessons, but must not be on the pool deck at any time, lessons can be viewed from
behind the glass in the viewing area. Parents will not be able to approach or have a conversation with their child/ren
before, during or after the lessons as the children’s focus needs to be on their instructors and teachers. Swimming
instructors must not be approached by parents, as they are supervising and teaching the students. Parents not
following these expectations may be asked to leave the pool. We thank parents in for their anticipated cooperation with
these expectations.
