Question 1

When should my child start swimming?

Accepted Answer

Children are born with a natural affinity to water, therefore the earlier the better. We do note a significant difference in skill level between children who start as infants and those who do not. Having said that, it's never too late. If infant lessons are not possible, we recommend 12-18 months as the minimum age, as those who start later than this are at higher risk of developing a fear of the water or alternatively, overconfidence.

Question 2

What age groups do you cater to?

Accepted Answer

We cater to individuals of all ages, from infants to adults. Our programs are designed to meet the specific needs and developmental stages of each age group.

Question 3

Do you offer free baby lessons?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we offer lessons for children starting as young as six months old. Children aged three to six months swim for free! Our experienced instructors use gentle and engaging methods to introduce water safety and develop basic swimming skills.

Question 4

How long are learn to swim lessons?

Accepted Answer

Our swim lessons typically last 30 minutes, providing an optimal balance of instruction and practice time. However, lesson durations may vary based on the age and skill level of the participants. Squads swim for longer and there are some private lessons available that are 20mins long.

Question 5

How can I enrol my child in swim lessons?

Accepted Answer

Enrolling your child is easy! Simply contact us with some simple information such as the age and swimming ability of your child. If your child is new to swimming we may need to organise for an assessment depending on their age. Our friendly staff will guide you through the enrolment process and provide all the necessary information.

Question 6

Do you offer make-up lessons?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we understand that unforeseen circumstances may arise. We offer make-up lessons for missed classes. Each student is eligible for up to three make-up lessons per term though more can be arranged in exceptional circumstances. These make-up lessons can be scheduled within three months (across different terms if necessary) and are subject to availability in classes of the same level. Please note that we cannot guarantee the same instructor for make-up lessons, as availability may vary. Our goal is to provide flexibility and ensure that your child receives the full value of their swim lesson experience.

Question 7

What is the student-to-instructor ratio in your classes?

Accepted Answer

We maintain small class sizes to ensure personalised attention and maximise learning opportunities. The student-to-instructor ratio varies from as low as 3:1, and will depend on the level. We strive to keep ratios low to provide individualised instruction and guidance.
