Information you need to know:

In the interests of hygiene, all children must wear a swimming hat available from our PE stockist - Brand Identity.

No earrings (even studs) or any other jewellery to be worn in the pool. These must be removed prior to swimming. Health and Safety Legislation states that children should not wear earrings for any form of P.E or swimming. If a child has recently had their ears pierced and are unable to remove them, they will not be able to swim.

• Swimming trunks, not shorts, or a one piece should be worn.

• Goggles are only allowed to be worn from Year 3 onwards.
• No talcum powder.
• Please label clothing and towels.
• Please be sure to send your child with a jumper, cardigan or sweatshirt, as they often feel chilly after swimming
• No verruca socks.
• If your child has a verruca we would ask that it must be treated before swimming.
• If a child has suffered with sickness and/or diarrhoea, please be advised they will not be able to swim for 48 hours - from the last occurrence

Whilst we understand that some of our pupils may already be able to swim 25m with confidence, our qualified swimming teachers will continue to refine technique and stamina. Furthermore, in line with our teaching and learning policy, pupils who are less competent swimmers are supported and encouraged by those whom are more proficient.
