Learn to swim, swimming lessons, and infant aquatics are all terms commonly used across the aquatic industry for programs that seek to build swimming skills. Swim and Survive is all of these, but most importantly it provides a level of protection for children by helping to equip them with solid foundation skills in swimming, survival and basic rescue.
The Little Wonder program is for infants and preschoolers. The program allows students to learn skills that align with motor skills learnt at each development age.

Youth Swimming Lessons
Our youth program caters for children 10 to 17 years with a focus on bridging the gap with their swimming skills while creating a welcoming space for older students free from potential unease about learning a skill which their peers may already be confident with. This will allow children to learn to swim with other people of a similar age and experience level, instead of being placed into a lesson based on their skill level which will likely be with younger students.
