The work, nearly all from Years 4, 5 and 6, will be displayedin the entrance to the pool. The entry which best explained the benefits of an Ozone pool,in a clear and concise way, was from Lloyd, in Year 4V, and here it is in full!‘Ozone is used as an alternative to chlorine to keep swimming pools clean. Chlorine isnot good for the environment, and can cause asthma, lung and skin damage. Ozone ismade of oxygen or O 2 . An ozone generator converts the oxygen into Ozone (O 3 ). Ozone isnatural and is more effective at filtering dirt, grease, skin, hair and oil, than chlorine.Ozone also keeps the water clearer, softer, and smelling fresher.`Lucas, also from Year 4V, produced a wonderfully detailed drawing which can be foundamongst the display at the entrance to the pool. Jack from Year 6RS answered thequestion ‘What is so special about our school pool?`‘Our school pool is special because ituses Ozone instead of chlorine. Thepool can be used all year round,because it is covered. The pool is 25metres long and at one end of it youcan dive because it is very deep. Thereis a small room where they keep extraequipment such as rings, flippers andfloats.Ethan from Year 6HS commented that,´Swans pool is great for hostingevents, and can make people sayWOW, as it looks stunning!`Swans Newsletter
