For more information on the different levels and classes, see the Program & Level Descriptions page.
Please Note:
- Any child that can already swim MUST have an assessment to determine the correct level to enrol in to – this is especially important if changing swim schools as lesson structure varies.
- Assessments are free and run during the following times:
- Monday to Friday 4 pm - 7 pm
- Saturday and Sunday 8 am - 2.30 pm
- You can join at any time of the session and payment is required only for the number of lessons remaining.
