Swimming

At St. Felix, pupils currently receive one term of swimming instruction. This is an integral part of the PE Curriculum and so the school funds this activity but requires a parental contribution towards transport due to removal of previous subsidised offer by local Suffolk provider.

Pupils currently receive swimming instruction in the Autumn Term of Year 5. This gives the opportunity for parents and carers to use the summer holiday for any initial instruction, as desired.
