KG PE Swimming Lessons
Dear GIS parents,
Our KG Students will start Swimming in certain PE Lessons as of Sunday
12th April (Day 2 in our cycle). This format for PE lessons will run until the
end of the academic year. KG students will now have 2 swimming lessons
and 2 PE lessons during the 8 day cycle. Please see the timetable for all
classes on page 2.
Within these lessons we will expand on the learning from Term 1, with our
main focus still on water safety and water confidence. Students will also
have the opportunity to focus on stroke technique, body position and their
breathing techniques.
Please see a list below of what your child must bring with them to
school for their swimming lessons:
Goggles
Swimsuit (girls one piece swimsuit only please)
Towel
Sandals / flip flops
Plastic Bag for wet items
Dressing Gown some students may wish this to wear from changing to
poolside

Swim Cap we would recommend that all students bring a swim cap,
especially girls as this protects hair and also allows for quicker changing as there
is no wet hair at the end of the lesson

Please remember to label all swimming costumes and towels, to assist us

to return lost items.

It is very important to keep PE Staff informed of any health problems

or health conditions. Students need to bring a written note from a doctor
to inform their PE teacher if they are unable to participate in swimming.
Otherwise, if a child is in school, they should be well enough to
participate in swimming.

Please feel free to contact the PE Department if you any questions related
to the swimming lessons in PE.
Kind Regards,
Evan Bryceland
Head of PE
Athletic Coordinator
