Swimming Kit
Girls: One piece swimming costume, no two-piece costumes are allowed
Boys: Speedo-type trunks or tight shorts, no baggy shorts or shorts with pockets are allowed
Long hair must be tied back; jewellery and earrings must be removed. Swim hats are allowed.
Goggles
The instructors would prefer all swimmers to be capable without goggles as swimming is being taught as a life skill. If children want to wear goggles then parental permission is required. You must have given permission for your child to wear goggles in the consent form that you completed in July when your child was in Year 3.
