Fun day at the Pools...

 

Today, my beloved and middle daughter accompanied our youngest to the pools with her syndicate classes. I didn't do the 15-minute walk to the pools as I had work to do but it was good to have two other helpers from our family to support the syndicate as, without parent/caregiver helpers, they wouldn't be able to go without that teacher/helper to child ratio.

It was neat to see the teachers chillaxing although some had to cook the BBQ and organise the children which is something that we parents were able to have a rest from and it was neat to see the children enjoying themselves and having fun in the pools.

We also realized that it had been several months since being in the pools as we had had our youngest's 9th birthday party there in March and have only just ventured back today due to the uncertainty of possible community transmission/s through the COVID-19 pandemic.

They also had a mini prizegiving to those who would not be getting prizes at the main prizegiving next week. Our youngest scored a prize as we had also been very careful in not sending her straight back after the two earlier lockdowns until we were certain that all was well.

All in all, they enjoyed their swim, the sausage sizzle, the ice blocks and then the long walk home with the end of year festivities only beginning...
