Our Learn to Swim program operates Monday to Sunday at all aquatics sites listed above. As the program is ongoing and dynamic we do not provide a timetable. Available days and times are displayed on the links above, and you can even enrol on the same link by following the prompts.
We do not offer make-up lessons for missed classes, but the Learn to Swim enrolment includes complimentary access for swimming recreational swimming and practice whenever you would like at your chosen aquatic centre.
Unfortunately we do not offer a cash payment option. Our direct debit system will take a payment every 4 weeks from a nominated credit or debit card, or bank account.
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.
