Our Learn To swim Program

Jellyfish classes are your little ones first introduction to Learn to swim lessons and to an aquatic environment with a parent. 

The overall outcome of this class is  to build confidence in the water through songs and games. 

Littlefish classes have a strong focus towards aquatic survival strategies and water safety skills.  What your child will get out of this level is overall water confidence and the ability to get themselves from A to B safely with minimal effort required.  

 Starfish classes have a strong focus towards aquatic survival strategies and water safety skills.  

What your child will get out of this level is overall water confidence and the ability to get themselves from A to B safely with minimal effort required. 

Clownfish class reinforces the water-safety skills already learnt in the previous class. Children move on from doing ‘Doggy Paddle’ and  start to learn big arms and other ‘freestyle/backstroke’ drills, without overwhelming the kids with the technique work of the full stroke. 

Bluefish classes focus on detailed technique for their Freestyle and backstroke. All of the skills they’ve been taught in their previous levels will be reinforced while we focus on length, strength  and stamina. 

Eels classes have a strong survival and water safety skill base and focus on overall water confidence and water safety skills. Children of school age will be taught how to save themselves in an aquatic environment, and how to get themselves from A to B with basic stroke development being introduced. 

Seals classes begin learning the technique work of both freestyle and backstroke. School age children in this level will have a basic understanding of what actions move them forward and what actions keep them afloat when doing Freestyle and Backstroke through strengthening drills and detailed technique skill work.

Breaststroke technique and the individual components of the stroke will be now introduced in Marlin classes, as well as freestyle and backstroke being reinforced. Students will be now swimming 12.5 - 15 metres depending on what stroke they’re doing to work on their stamina and fitness.
