Patrick and Lauren's school offer swimming and water safety programs for all grade 3, 4, and 5 students. As our main swimming centre Windmill Hill has been closed for about 18months being redeveloped, from last year the lessons were at Grammar (private school) pool. Patrick went last year and it's a fantastic facility, and better than the usual learn to swim pool that is outdoors (brr) and even depth - which is great for the younger kids, but at 8 and 9, it's good that they get practice in a "normal" pool with varying depths. They have nine 1hr classes starting after the long weekend in March - perfect as it's still nice weather and not cold to be spending the rest of the day at school damp! Paddy had his lessons in the two weeks before the end of 1st term last year - the end of May - which was a little cold! Lauren's are 9.15-10.15, and Paddy's 10.15 - 11.15 so it couldn't be better for spectating.

That's great! Jalen's aren't until May, so it will be fresh then.
