​Year 3 children will start their 2 week block of swimming on Monday 15th January.
Year 4 and Year 4 children will go swimming later in this school year. Details will follow in due course.


Swimming forms part of the National Curriculum and all children are expected to participate.
​
The lessons take place each afternoon and children are back in school ready to be collected at 4pm.

​During the two weeks of intensive swimming course, children MUST bring their swimming kit (costume/trunks and a towel) into school EVERYDAY. Please ensure the swimming kit is in a clearly named bag each day for the 2 week period. Children with long hair will also need a swimming hat.

A message from:
Picture
Your child has really improved their swimming on the intensive course at Tiverton Pool.
​To help continue this, all children living in the city of Birmingham are able to swim for free.
Picture
​To achieve this, you will need a LEISURE CARD. Just take two proofs of your Birmingham address to a swimming pool in the city of Birmingham, and you will be issued with the card which will allow your child free entry to any pool within the city.
It is essential the children continue swimming after the intensive courses we provide for the schools, to maintain and improve the level of swimming they have accomplished.
Children under 8 must be accompanied by an adult.
Picture
Also available at Tiverton pool:
  1. Be Active free swims for the family.
  2. Stroke for Life swimming lessons.
  3. Swim parties.
