Unfortunately we do not offer a cash payment option. Our direct debit system will take a payment every 4 weeks or fortnightly from a nominated credit or debit card, or bank account. You can choose your payment frequency upon enrolment.
You can use the tables above to help work out where your child belongs. We also offer complimentary assessments to determine your child's level based on their current skills and ability. You can sign up for an assessment in the "Free assessment" dropdown above.
As we run an ongoing Learn to Swim program, assessments are ongoing each week by the instructors. The Learn to Swim program will have a formal assessment week every 5 weeks. If a student is ready to progress to the next level prior to a formal assessment week, you will be notified through the online portal. Students progress can be checked via the member portal.
