Toddler & Preschool Aquatic Program
Teaching a child to swim takes commitment, knowledge, patience and understanding.
Our teachers work with each child to build confidence, water safety and aquatic survival skills in a positive and engaging way.
While parents are no longer required in-water at this level, we encourage parents to watch on with extra encouragement and praise.
Teaching a child also takes time - please allow us this time to enable your child to be a happy water confident swimmer.

In this pupil/teacher class, toddlers learn to cope in the water even when it's too deep to stand. They learn to follow instructions from a teacher and gain the confidence to move to the next stages of learning to swim.

3 years - 3.5 years
These confident swimmers learn further skills using the kickboard and progressive drills. Students aim for correct body positioning and greater independence.
Swimming Tips for Parents
- Where possible, please refrain from feeding your child during the hour prior to their lesson time.
