CONGRATULATIONS EMMA

Baby Harry was born on 25th March (in

the back of the ambulance)!

The viewing gallery is currently closed at St

Michael's School Pool. We are waiting for the results

of a survey performed on the roof of the gallery to

declare if it is safe to enter the gallery. 11/03/13

Update: 16/03/13 There is still no news.

I think we can safely assume it is going to be closed

for the foreseeable future.

 Swimming Helps Asthmatics

Swimming does not increase the risk of asthma or

allergic symptoms in children, according to an

extensive study by European scientists.

In fact, swimming is positively beneficial to children

with pre-existing respiratory conditions, according to

the study, published in the American Journal of

Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine.

Detailed information on the health and activities

since birth of 5,738 children was used in the

study. Asthma UK said the results coincided with

their stance on swimming and young asthmatics. Dr

Elaine Vickers, the charity's research relations

manager said "This is the first study

examining the relationship between swimming and

young asthmatics where children have been

monitored over many years".
