Swimming Starts Next Week

                                                                                                October 19, 2015

Dear Parents,

         On Tuesday, October 27th, our class will begin swimming instruction at the Kenny Athletic Center.  We will swim on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Friday mornings from 8:00-8:45 for two weeks. Your daughter should be dropped off at the Lower School.  During that time, the girls will NOT have regular P.E. classes.

The following equipment will be needed for each child on swimming days:  a one-piece swimsuit, a latex or silicone swim cap, a towel, goggles (optional), healthy snack, and a bag other than a backpack to carry swim equipment.  Please label your daughter’s supplies. 

Tankinis and bikinis are not allowed.  The swim cap is required to help keep hair relatively dry and to keep the pool clean.  All swim equipment will be taken home each day and brought back to school the following day.  If your daughter has long hair, please put it in a ponytail or braid for ease in putting on the swim cap.  The girls should NOT wear tights on swimming days, as they are hard to put on damp legs.

                                                              

Thanks so much,

                                                               Tara DiGiacomo and Alexa Anderson
