Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, your instructor will advise you at the right point in your swimming journey with us on when your child has achieved the various stages in badge development. You then have the option to buy a badge and get a certificate at reception
We follow the Swim Wales Learn to Swim Scheme. Within this we offer the Bubbles Framework for ages 0-3 years old, Splash Framework for ages 3-5 years old, and Wave Framework for ages 4+.
Our Bubbles and Splash lessons require an adult in the water to provide support to the baby/child every week.
Due to being direct debit lessons, we will only pause for Christmas Holidays and resume in the New Year meaning you'll have access to lessons 50 weeks of the year providing continuous progression in lessons.
Our instructors will let you know the areas your child is doing well in and areas of improvement, which you as a family can practice in your own time. Our instructors will let you know when your child has achieved all of their outcomes and is ready to move class.
All of our Learn To Swim Memberships are paid via direct debit to make it easier for you.
Drop off and pick up will be at the poolside door located in the link outside of the changing rooms. Your swimming instructor will meet you there for pick up and drop off.
Please ensure your child uses the facilities before the lessons starts to avoid this happening! Should it be urgent, we require parents/guardians to be on hand in the viewing gallery to support their child as instructors are not able to complete this task with others to watch in the lesson. Children aged 8+ may use toilets unattended
Our aim is to provide the same instructor week in week out to ensure you and your child are provided with an opportunity to build rapport and see progress. From time to time, we do have the need to provide alternative instructors but rest assured they are all well trained competent individuals who will pick up the learning priorities left from the previous week.
