SWIMMING PROGRAM

The school facilitates a ‘learn to swim’ program for children in Years Prep, 1 & 2 and students in grades 3 – 6 who have not reached the safe swimmer level known as Water Sense 3, (a standard set through the Royal Life Saving Society Australia).

Lessons are held over a 2 week period, usually a 9 day program, at Bellarine Aquatic and Sports Centre.

Students in Years 3–6 who have reached Water Sense 3 and who are very competent swimmers will have an opportunity to participate in an advanced swimming session at Kardinia Pool and Eastern Beach.

TENNIS LESSONS

A qualified local tennis coach offers students tennis lessons at lunchtime on the Surfside Tennis Club courts adjacent to the school. Children are escorted there and back.

Pertussis (Whooping Cough)

We have been informed of a confirmed case of Pertussis (commonly known as Whooping Cough). Please be vigilant in regards to your child's health and refrain from sending them to school if they are unwell.

Anaphylaxis

There are students attending Our Lady Star of the Sea school who are at risk to life - threatening allergic reactions, particularly to nuts and nut products. Prevention is better than a cure so the rule for students is the “no sharing of food rule”.

Please be mindful of other students' allergies when providing food for your child at school.
