Swimming Sports

Dear Parents and Caregivers,

On Thursday 13th March we have the Y3-8 Swimming Sports at Huia Pool between 12 and 2 o'clock.

In their classrooms over the past couple of days, the children have been choosing 2 or 3 races they would like to enter. The majority of the Y3/4 Syndicate will swim in the smaller pool which is perfect for our needs. Some of our more confident Y4 swimmers will join the Y5-8s in the main pool.

We have encouraged the children to choose races they will enjoy and feel confident about racing in. Our aim is for the Y3/4 Swimming Sports to be a fun event. 

If you are familiar with Huia Pool you know it will be a bit of a tight squeeze but the space worked perfectly for us last year. If you can spare a few hours on Thursday afternoon, please come and support your child.

The children are encouraged to wear 'House Colours' and to bring two towels so that they can stay warm between races.

We do require a few parent helpers, so if you are free and willing to help, please let me know via email: savage@muritai.school.nz

We look forward to seeing you there!

On behalf of the Year 3 and 4 teachers,

Jess Savage
