Year 5 Swimming PE Sessions – 7 February 2024

Dear Parents/Carers,

There are 3 swimming PE sessions remaining for Year 5; 22nd Feb, 29th Feb’ and 7th March.

The session straight after half-term on Thursday 22nd February will be a Water Safety lesson. For part of this session, children will be invited to go into the water wearing clothes on top of their swim wear. They will then learn how to move to the side safely and how to help others to safety.

For the Water Safety session on 22nd children will need to therefore bring some LIGHT clothes such as long-sleeved pyjamas and cotton trousers IN ADDITION to their usual swim wear to put on over the top of their swim wear once they are at the pool. They will also need a bag to put the wet clothes in afterwards.

Kind regards,

Claire Threlfall
