Swimming Programs

Babies & Toddlers (6 months - 3 years)

In the infant program, a parent or carer supports the baby or toddler in the pool. This helps build confidence and supports the child's learning process as well as create a unique bonding and trust building experience between parent and child.

Children will learn to:

• water conditioning skills and understand trigger/cues for safe swimming
• parents will learn correct hold techniques to ensure babies are comfortable in the water
• submersions - babies will learn breath control and introduction to blowing bubbles
• motor skills – working toward independent movement through interactive activities – paddle, kick and propulsion
• flotation
• survival skills – entries and exits
• socialisation with other children through interactive and engaging activities

Preschool Program (3 years to school age)

In the preschool swimming program, children learn to become more independent in the water and begin to develop important water survival skills.

Children will learn skills in:

• Body orientation and flotation
• Propulsion, breath control and submersion
• Basic stroke development
• Personal and water safety.
• Learning to follow instructions and class structure
• Socialising and interacting with other children

School Aged (5+ years)

In this program, the focus is on physical, intellectual and personal development. Children establish a lifelong appreciation for safe activity in the water, and learn vital survival skills not just for the pool but for rivers, lakes and the ocean.

Children will learn to:

• develop and refine swimming strokes
• cooperate with and respect others in an aquatic environment
• make safe and sensible decisions and solve problems in and around water.

You'll learn to:
