WEEK 7 AT AQUATOTS! (5 at Googong)
Weβre swimming into Week 7 and this week make-up lessons are now open for families swimming at Forde, Gold Creek and Black Mountain.
Make-up lessons can be booked through the Parent Portal. If your child is going to miss their regular lesson, please remember to mark them absent. This opens their spot for another swimmer who may be looking to book a make-up lesson β helping everyone get more opportunities for valuable water time!
Googong families: Youβre in Week 5 this week, so your make-up lessons will open a little later due to your different term dates.
Keep up the amazing consistency, Aquatots families β every lesson counts as we head towards summer!

Well done, Wave Makers β now make sure you get those stamp sheets in!
