Learning to swim is a gift for life
By enrolling in our popular learn to swim program, you are giving your child one of the most important skills they will ever learn and one they will utilise for the rest of their lives. Our system of teaching children how to swim has proven to be very successful, producing swimmers with excellent swimming technique. Our program & teaching methods are continually being refined & kept up to date with the world industry standards in swim teaching. Our school age program runs every afternoon and Saturday mornings. New clients receive a complimentary assessment of their child’s swimming skills & a consultation where they will be placed into classes according to the child’s abilities. Safety is the underlining principle of everything that we do, from the teaching of our program, to the continual education of all clients and staff.
Our School Age Levels have a maximum of 4 children & run for 30 mins

Private Lessons
Where a private lesson is necessary, we can provide a one on one swimming lesson.

Private lessons must be paid 1 week in advance & are held at the beginning or end of a teacher’s shift.
