| We are a Royal Lifesaving Society Endorsed Swim School. Our stages/certificates are the same as those used by The Royal Lifesaving Society and very similar to the Education Department Interm programs.
Our philosophy is that children should be strong and confident in passing a stage. We believe our standards are high and in the long run will produce much better results for your child’s swimming.
All our staff are Austswim accredited. All hold a current police clearance/working with children check and resuscitation qualification.
We cater for children 4 years and up. Our swimming lessons run in 4 blocks over the summer season:
