Prep – Grade Two Water Awareness Program 2025
Students in Prep to Grade Two will participate in a Water Awareness Program from Monday, 17th March to Friday, 21st March at the Burnie Aquatic Centre.
Students will travel by bus in their class groups to and from the pool. Please ensure your child has a substantial packed lunch on these days, as the pool canteen will not be accessible.
As swimming is part of the HPE curriculum, it is essential that all children participate. Please complete your child's permission form on Compass to ensure they can take part.
