Dear Parent/Carer
We are writing to advise you of the arrangements for the Year 2 Swimming Programme for Spring 2024 & Summer 2024. The children will have 10 weeks of 30-minute swimming sessions split into 2 blocks between 8th January to 5th February (5 Weeks) and 10th June to 8th July (5 Sessions). Swimming sessions will take place at 1610 Chilton Sports Centre. The children will be taught in their two separate classes.

The school will fund the cost of the swimming tuition and we are asking for parents to contribute for the transport only which will be a cost of £25.00 (increased from last year due to the rise in transports costs). Please visit: www.scopay.com/eastoverprimary to log in to your Child’s Scopay account where you can make payment by 2nd January 2024. If insufficient contributions are made towards transport costs, we may have to consider alternative arrangements i.e. walking to and from the swimming pool.
Swimming forms a crucial and compulsory part of the children’s P.E. curriculum and is a ‘life-skill’ that children need for their own safety. We hope that you will be able to support the school in fulfilling the swimming programme by ensuring that your child has a swimming kit with them on swimming days.
Yours sincerely
Year 2 Class Teachers
