Swimming Week 7-11
2016-03-07
I’m excited to announce that after the success of our last swim module we will again be having swimming lessons in the last half of this term. We have decided to have lessons in Term One to align with the zone swimming champs and give your year 5-7 athletes the best possible chance of qualifying.
From weeks 7-11 of Term 1 all RCS children will have swimming lessons on Mondays and Wednesdays for 30min at Selwyn Aquatic Centre.
We will walk to Selwyn Aquatic Centre in hubs from 1pm and be back at school by 3pm on Mondays and Wednesdays. Children will get changed at the Centre before their lessons. Please ensure your child has proper swimming togs e.g no underwear while swimming, caps and goggles are encouraged but not compulsory. You are welcome to watch the lessons from week 8 onwards. PLEASE NAME ALL CLOTHING.
Children will be ineligible for lessons if they’ve had diarrhoea or vomiting 24 hours prior to lessons.
The cost of 10 X 30min lessons is $30.00 per child. Please pay using EFTPOS at the office or with internet banking using your child’s surname and ‘swim’ as the reference e.g PILGRIM SWIM.

2016 Information Meeting
2016-02-16 15:30 - 19:00
On Tuesday 16th February we will be holding a 2016 Information Meeting for parents. It is very important that all families attend this meeting so we are able to partner positively to enhance your children’s education. In order to make it easier for families we will hold the meeting at two times – 3.30pm and 7.00pm. Both meetings will be exactly the same, but we hope having two time options will mean that everyone is able to come. Please let the office know which meeting you plan to attend.
