Dear Parents and Carers,

2017/2018 SWIMMING CARNIVAL

Our school swimming carnival will be held on Wednesday 22 November, 2017 at Revesby Swimming Pool. All students of East Hills Public School will be attending. Swimming races will be held for children aged 8 years (turning 8 in 2018) and above. If your child is under 8, or does not want to compete in races, they may enter the novelty events by ticking the appropriate boxes.

Important:

·  Children without any boxes marked on the permission slip will not be permitted to enter the water at any stage of the carnival

·  If you have marked that your child can swim 25 metres or 50 metres, they may be invited to compete in other events in the large pool on the day and are permitted to participate in novelty events.

Children need to be at school by 9:00am to leave on the bus at 9:10am. The approximate finishing time is 2:00 pm.

Please complete the permission slip attached with the events your child wishes to enter.

The cost of the swimming carnival is $10.00, which includes payment for the bus and pool entry.

Your child will need a costume, towel, extra t-shirt, plastic bag for wet clothes and their recess. Children may wear house colours on the day (Banks – Blue, Bass – Yellow, Cook – Green, Flinders – Red).
