swim school (learn to swim)
The Learn to Swim team is passionate about building water safety knowledge, confidence, and accurate swimming fundamentals. We value our team’s accumulated professional knowledge as it demonstrates a commitment and love of teaching. Our teachers are experienced, Austswim qualified with tried and tested swimming teaching methods.
Skills beyond the pool
We don’t just teach quality swimming, we aim to instil, resilience, patience, self-awareness, self-reflection, perseverance and taking pride in achievements. Our theme throughout each level of swimming is developing a supportive culture and developing the person, (not just the athlete) and it all starts here.
Bond with your child
The early years are the most important in a child’s life. This is where the most learning occurs and strongest connections between caregiver and child. Swimming lessons are a perfect way to forget about the business of life and solely focus on your child.
Adult Learn to Swim
Learning to swim is important for everyone – including adults. We provide private adult learn to swim lessons. This can be arranged with a friend or just by yourself. It’s never to late to learn.
Parent involvement is an important aspect to swimmer progression. Children love nothing more than hearing positive encouragement. You can see your swimmer’s achievements ticked off in our portal.
Direct Debit fortnightly payments are arranged through the parent portal. You will also be able to view our Terms and Conditions on the Portal.
Keep up to date with your child's swimming progression
swim all year
To retain momentum, we swim all year round, not term – by – term. However, we understand that there is a life beyond the pool, therefore families are provided with 4 weeks holiday credit per year and 1 make-up lesson per month.
free swim assessment
To ensure we are meeting your requirements and that we place your child in the appropriate group, we will organise a 15-minute swim assessment. Email or phone to book your assessment.
