| ABOUT US |
Watkins Southside Swimming, formerly Maida Vale Swim School,
was established by Jan and Lester Watkins in 1974. The program
relocated to Wesley College Pool in 1993 and took on the name
Watkins Southside Swimming. Jan and Lester retired in 2003 at
which time Nick and Lee Watkins took over the management of
the business.
Over the years the program has developed into a well respected
Swim School that is very proud of the standards it produces.
Ranging from 4 years of age upwards the swim school caters for
learn to swim, squads and adult classes. Once in our squads
the focus is on achieving excellence and personal bests with
a heavy emphasis on competition. This is introduced through
racing at the Southside Wesley Swimming Club with the aim of
developing our swimmers to the highest possible level, be that
school, state, national or international.
The Southside Wesley Swimming Club is an A Grade Swimming Club
that regularly sends groups of swimmers to National Championships.
Our staff are fully qualified and are encouraged to foster a
fun and happy learning environment for your child. Our emphasis
is on delivering positive and respectful tuition to develop
not only their swimming but also their self esteem. |
