Your child should wear swimwear that they are comfortable and confident in. We will not stop any child from swimming due to their choice of swimwear, unless it is dangerous. When choosing swimwear, please consider the following:
Long sleeve swimsuits can help with outdoor swimming and modesty but they aren’t ideal for indoor swimming lessons. They cause a lot of drag in the water and also don’t keep children any warmer in the pool. It can actually make them feel colder when outside of the pool due to the damp clothing around their body.
Baggy shorts are not ideal for swimming lessons as the pockets fill with water and inflate the shorts behind the swimmer creating a drag in the water which makes it harder to swim.
Bikinis don’t always fit that well and cause a distraction for children trying to adjust them whilst swimming.
Wet suits with built in buoyancy will assist your child in the water but create a false sense of their swimming ability and your child will not swim as well if they find themselves in a situation where they are not wearing the suit.

The best swimwear for boys is above the knee tight shorts. These are made of a proper swimming material and minimise drag.
The best swimwear for girls is a double strap swimsuit or a boy leg swimsuit. These are also made of a proper swimming material and minimise drag.
It is best to avoid adding a swim top.

Goggles are not necessary for beginners as they won’t be putting their face in the water very much as part of the lesson. They are usually more of a distraction than a benefit. Once your child progresses to the more advanced group, goggles are useful. These should be good quality, one-piece goggles. Large scuba diving type goggles are not suitable and goggles with lots of parts which can become detached are to be avoided.
Please see the examples below.

We have a maximum of 12 children in the beginners class with one teacher and two assistants in the water with them. We have a maximum of 10 swimmers in the more advanced classes with one teacher on the side.

Each class is 30 minutes long.

We run our own awards and distances scheme that your child will be tested for through the term as they develop new skills. You will have the opportunity to purchase certificates for your child’s achievements when they are awarded them at the end of each term.
