Friday, June 21 is our annual school swim at George Ward. As I am new to Victoria this year, I am sure that many of you will know even better than I do what that will look like! Here are a few notes about what I know:
-Parents/Caregivers are very welcome to join us for part or all of the day; however, we will not have space on the school bus, nor will we be able to pay for their admission to the pool.
-We will be outside, so students need to be well-prepared for the weather. I would suggest that each student comes prepared with sunscreen, hats, jackets/sweaters, and insect repellent.
-Students not wishing to swim for all or part of the time are welcome to bring a frisbee, a ball, or a book. Please do not bring valuables that you do not want lost or stolen, including personal electronic devices.
-The concession will be open and accessible to students; however, please ensure that your child brings a healthy lunch with snacks and a water bottle, as healthy choices may be limited and the line long at the concession.
-If possible, please also $2 with your child to cover the cost of the bus to the pool. Thank you for your help!
Please let me know if you have any questions about the trip. Hope to see you there!
