Swimming: Our first week of swimming at Seton YMCA begins on Monday June 1! All swimming forms should have been returned to your child’s teacher. If you have not yet paid for lessons, you can do so online through MyCBE Account. A confirmation email was sent to volunteers this week (There is one volunteer spot left on June 9. Please email Ms. Cassan amcassan@cbe.ab.ca to sign up). Thank you to all the volunteers who have signed up to help! If you have any questions, please reach out to Ms. Cassan.

A few reminders to help everyone have a fun and successful week of swimming:

-        Send your child dressed with their bathing suit underneath their school clothes and underwear packed in their swimming bag

-        Please provide a specific swimming bag other than their backpack as backpacks will stay at school.

-        Send a labelled large zip lock bag for your child’s wet bathing suit.

-        Send a towel.

-        EpiPens & Inhalers should be packed in their swim bag (or in your child’s fanny pack if they normally wear one).

-        Please label every single item with your child’s name.

-        Please remind your child to not bring valuables or any unnecessary items to the pool such as water bottles as there are water fountains available.

-        Practice getting changed at home, as your child should be able to change independently.
