			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Each year Kirklees Active Leisure (KAL) increases the charges we have to pay for the hire of the pool and the lifeguard. This year&#8217;s increase is larger than anticipated and as such it has left us with no choice but to increase our charges to swimmers.</p>
<p>Our last price incease was November 2010.</p>
<p>To cover the additional costs we will be charging £2.00 per swim for children and £2.70 per swim for adults. Price increase will be effective 1st May 2012</p>
<p>We do apologise for this increase (and the short notice) but hopefully this will enable us to cover our costs. We need a minimum of 50 swimmers per night to do this. Thank you for your continued support.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Due to holiday commitments of our Club Coaches this year we will once again operate the Club ONE NIGHT per week during the School summer holidays</p>
<p>This year the Club will only OPEN on Tuesday evenings.  During these evenings we will hold our ever popular “Swim For Fun Sessions”.  If your child normally swims on a Thursday evening please bring them to the Tuesday swim sessions.</p>
<p>Swim for Fun Sessions<br />
Tuesday 19th &#038; 26th  July 2011<br />
Tuesday 2nd/9th/16th/23rd/30th August 2011 </p>
<p>NO THURSDAY NIGHT SWIMMING ON<br />
21st/28th July/4th/11th/18th/25th August and 1st September</p>
<p>The format of the Tuesday evenings will be:</p>
<p>7.00-7.20       All swimmers (Tuesday and Thursday night swimmers) who normally<br />
                     have lessons at 7.00 will have a shorter lesson on a Tuesday only</p>
<p>7.20-8.00        Pool Frog 1 and Pool Frog 2 swimmers to have Swim for Fun Sessions<br />
                       (supervised play sessions using balls etc in the shallow end)</p>
<p>7.20-8.15        All swimmers with Pool Frog 3 and above (that is deep end swimmers)<br />
	Swim for Fun Sessions using the middle to deep end of the Pool</p>
<p>8.15-9.00        Adult Swimming<br />
	Children aged 13 plus might prefer to swim during the adult swim session<br />
  instead of participating in our Swim for Fun sessions. This is purely length<br />
  swimming and not for play.	</p>
<p>Your child can bring along a friend or relative to these sessions.  These children MUST BE 6 years old and be able to swim at least 50 metres if they wish to join in the “deep end” game sessions.   There will be the normal charge of £1.80 per child swim.  We are limited to 50 swimmers per session.</p>
<p>Normal lessons will resume on Tuesday 6th September 2011</p>
<p>2011-2012 Membership Subscription<br />
As you know membership of the Club runs from October to October and I will be starting to collect subscriptions for 2011-2012 after the summer holidays.   Subs will be £30.00 for the year, plus the cost of a swim is £1.80 per child £2.50 per adult.   If your child is leaving the Club and holds a Gala Trophy could you please ensure this is returned to Yvonne.</p>
<p>ASA/STA Certificates<br />
Due to increases  in prices from the ASA and STA plus the fact that postage is now added to deliveries we, reluctantly ,have to increase the charges for our certificates.</p>
<p>With immediate effect we will be charging £2.20 for each certificate gained.</p>
<p>Yvonne</p>
