About this cause

St Ives School Assiciation (SISA) is the St Ives Primary & Nursery School PTA. SISA raised funds to build the school pool 40yrs ago and since then it has always been funded, maintained and run by the parents of the school. This is an amazing resource which benefits children from our school and other local schools, enabling them to learn the vital life skill of swimming. We also run After School Lessons, Parent & Toddler Sessions, Intensive Courses and Fun Swims. We have seen the highest use of the pool this year with over 600 swimmers a week. We also organise various events for the children and local community to raise funds to provide the children with extra educational resources. These events provide funds that improve our school and bring the whole community together.

How this cause brings people in the community together

Our pool is used by our school community and by other local schools. Our Fun Swim sessions allow the children and their families and friends to enjoy the pool. We also hire the pool out to the local Rainbows, Brownies and Guides clubs.
