Swimming lesson frequently asked questions
What age can my child start swimming?
Children can be enrolled on to our swimming lessons from as young as the parents/guardians feel is appropriate for their child.
We ask that for children under 6 months, you have consulted with your GP and that your child has had the appropriate immunisations.
Available programmes
- Children aged 0-2 would be placed in an adult and child lesson called Discovery Duckling.
- Children aged 2-4 would be placed in an adult and child Duckling class
- Children aged 4+ would start in stage 1 of the Learn to Swim Framework and a parent needs to be in the pool until the teacher thinks the child is confident enough to be on their own.
