Dear Parents and Swimmers

Welcome back, it has been wonderful to see so many of you training in the pool over the last week.

I am delighted that at present we have over 50 swimmers subscribed to the morning swim sessions, for the safety of all swimmers no further registrations will be taken for the morning sessions. There are a number of swimmers who have not yet registered for their training sessions and I am aware they would like to train in the mornings, therefore if any swimmer has not attended their registered morning session after this week, their place will be released to one of those swimmers who are keen to swim in the mornings, if you would like to join this waiting list please speak directly with myself.

For all morning swimmers, the sessions start at 6.15am prompt in the water – swimmers should aim to arrive at 6am so that they are ready to begin swimming at 6.15am. Swimmers arriving after 6.20am will be unable to join the session due to the disruption caused to those swimmers already training. Please kindly note, for the safety of all swimmers, only those registered for the session are able to attend.

Over the coming weeks I will be sending out competition details, some will be invitation only and others will be open to all. A polite reminder that all swimmers who wish to represent Shrewsbury International School are required to attend a minimum of 2 swim sessions per week – swimmers who are absent from school or who have spoken with their coach in advance of the session explaining their absence will receive an “authorised absence” for that session.

For any questions and queries please do not hesitate to come into the Sports and Activities Office.

Kindest Regards

Mrs Gill
