September - October 2025
Our Year 4 pupil (who swims daily) and our Year 5 RP pupils have been attending swimming sessions twice a week. Over the course of half a term (Autumn 1), they are developing the ability to swim competently, confidently, and proficiently. These lessons take place in the on-site ‘pop-up pool’ at Swain House. The children are supported in the water by a fully qualified swimming instructor, with a qualified lifeguard on poolside. RP staff are also present to provide additional support, including signing to aid understanding and ensuring the children’s safety. They have all made wonderful progress and are very proud of themselves!
