september 2010 class time changes

Traditionally with the approach of the new term, there will be schedule changes concurrent with our pupil’s advancements. These time changes are unavoidable, as they are made to benefit our pupils by placing them in the correct classes according to their levels of achievement throughout the last year.

NB: We appreciate how tight household schedules are and do our best to keep to previously scheduled times and days, however sometimes this is not possible if we want our pupils to progress so there will have to be some class and time changes.

We trust that you will accommodate any changes that have been made.

Should you wish to change your child’s lesson time for September please submit a notice in writing before the end of June 2010. The earlier you submit your requests, the more chance there is of us being able to accommodate them.

For confirmation of these new times, it is vital that you contact us between the 9th and 12th (inclusive) August 2010.

Swimming classes resume on Tuesday 31st August 2010.
