Adult and Child Classes form the Foundation stage of the Swim School. These are for children 5 months to 4 years accompanied by an adult to enjoy water confidence, and learn swimming skills through guided games and activities.

Children attend lessons on their own from 4 years and are taught swimming skills following the ASA National Plan for Teaching Swimming. (Details of this can be viewed below.)

For children who have already learnt to swim but are looking for a new challenge Swim School offers a variety of activities such as Rookie lifeguard, water polo, diving, and synchronised swimming.
