No problem Tamsin - glad to have you back with us!
Your verbs are fine, but it's LA piscine, so Je suis allée à la piscine. In the third sentence you would be better to omit 'le parti' because you can't use 'partir' with a direct object, you would use 'quitter' - e.g. J'ai quitté la maison or Je suis partie de la maison. Hope that makes sense!
