Junior Swimming Term 4
Last Friday we had our Junior Swimming final lessons for Prep, Year 1 2/3C and Year 3’s. Parents were invited to come along and watch what the students have been learning. Despite the consistent downpours many parents came along and it was great the children had a free swim at the end. Thank you to our swimming instructors – Amy, Michelle, Sam and Karen for teaching our youngest learners how to swim. We are looking forward to the Senior Swimming carnival next on the 3rd December.

You should also check the expiry dates before taking medications back to school after the holidays.
