Maintenance of Swimming Pool

Maintenance of Swimming Pool

One of the extraordinary projects that has been on the Improvement Plan for Rosebank Primary School is the
upgrading of the school’s swimming pool. We are sure that you will agree that the ability to swim is an essential
life skill and Rosebank Primary School is very fortunate to have a swimming pool.
The maintenance on the pool has been scheduled to be completed before Term 4 when all learners are required
to swim during their PE lessons and we offer swimming as part of the extramural programme.
You may have noticed that the water has already been drained from the pool so that this maintenance can be
carried out. Unfortunately, the company has identified problems with the pool floor surface that were not visible
when the water was in the pool. The approved quote has increased from R25 000 to R65 000.

We are therefore appealing to our parent body for donations to put towards this project. We need to raise the
extra R45 000 to help pay for this maintenance work. Any contribution will be greatly appreciated.

We thank you in advance for any donations/contributions towards this extraordinary project, which will allow our
qualified swim instructor teachers to teach your children the very vital life skill of swimming. “In the water, we’re
weightless, free, and capable of anything.” (Katie Ledecky). Let’s teach our learners that they are capable of
anything.
