Dear Parents/ Carers,

You may or may not be aware that I shall be taking a long holiday this summer commencing 28th June 2010 until 20th September 2010. I have the need to take a break from the club, although I very much enjoy teaching and coaching your children, I do feel I would like to spend sometime focused on my own family.

All sessions will be covered by our qualified teachers, they will continue to follow the teaching schedules planned by myself and I shall be in touch with them to make sure that everything is going well and review sessions from time to time.
My 7.30 session on a Saturday morning may not always be covered but a schedule will always be available in the cupboard.

Julie Chamberlain who teaches the beginners group is moving on and we thank her for her time and commitment. Shannon Gilbert our level one teacher who as been assisting in the pool with this group for the past 2 years will be taking over from her. Kieran Martin will continue in the pool assisted by Chloe Bayliss and Heulwen Gilbert.

Please be assured that we will continue to strive to provide a happy and progressive learning environment for your children. Our teachers are all qualified and our poolside helpers will be commencing on an ASA training programme in September to help them develop their skills.

If you have any concerns please speak to our teachers or head coach Ray Budd but remember please do so after the session. I have also a contact link via the website should you need to contact me. You will see me around from time to time to see our swimmers and support our valuable teachers.

Yours Sincerely,

Annette Gilbert
