School Holiday Swimming

For children aged 4½ years and older.  Crash courses are an effective and fun way to introduce your child to swimming or boost your child's swimming ability.  For details, pick up a School Holiday leaflet.

First Lesson

For all first lessons, if the child is unfamiliar with the pools, parents are permitted to escort pupils onto poolside (parents please walk barefooted) and seat them on the middle plinth.  You must then return to the viewing area.

Recommendation Cards

The teacher will use a Recommendation Card to pass information/advice to parent or guardian.  If the parent has a query concerning any recommendation, please contact the Wetside Manager via reception.
