All of our children that attend Swallowfield Primary are lucky enough to be able to have access to our wonderful swimming pool for the first autumn half term and then again for the last summer term of the year. It is a fantastic opportunity for our children to learn vital swimming skills and have some added extra fun with their P.E lessons.
To help our teachers to be able to utilise more opportunities to use the pool for swimming lessons we have been asked to raise some funds to provide a cover that can be put on overnight to keep the heat in. Unfortunately currently all the heat that has been provided by the heater and the sun is lost overnight sometimes meaning that the swimming lessons cannot go ahead in the morning due to it being too cold.
Not only will a pool cover be more cost effective for the school but it will also open up lots more opportunities for our children to be able to swim in a lovely and consistently heated pool, it may also enable us to keep our children swimming past October half term and before the Easter holidays (weather permitting).
