It was the first day back at school yesterday and our children were greeted by the sight of a huge marquee on the playground, which contained a heated swimming pool. Our Year 3 children will be swimming every afternoon for the first two weeks, while our Year 2 and any non-swimmers higher up the school will be in there every afternoon. They will have a swimming instructor in the water with them - you can see her in the photograph - to help them perfect their technique and a lifeguard outside, to keep them all safe. Having spoken to several of the children yesterday, they had a great time and are already becoming much more confident in the water. What a great start to the new school year!
