Please excuse us if we are less responsive to questions about the lessons programme over the next week or so.

Sue Lambert is recovering in hospital from a hip-replacement operation, and will not be in a position to respond to e-mails or voice mails until the end of the week at the earliest.

We are now in the spring break. All swimmers on lessons have received details of where and when they will be swimming when they resume. Registers have been posted to all teachers and water helpers.
