Learn to Swim Program (4+ years)
The Learn to Swim program is for children aged 4 years and above. The students in this program will work through Levels 1 - 12.
We also offer a squad program; the squad class is a one-hour long session and is for any student that has completed Level 7 and above in our program. Find out more here.
Our teenage 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.
