Why teach children to swim?
It's so much fun!
The easiest way for a child to learn a new skill is through fun and games. Our swimming lessons have a high focus on having fun and enjoying being in the water.
It makes a great holiday
Whether you enjoy holidays at home or abroad, being able to swim will open up so many possibilities and make great memories.
It provides confidence in the water
Feeling safe and confident in the water at all times is essential and enables children to play confidently with their friends and family.
It's a life skill
Swimming is a skill that will stay with you forever, enabling you to have fun in the water wherever you are and however old you are. It is also a skill that could save your life!
Did you know...?
More than half of children aged 7 to 11 years old in this country are unable to swim a minimum of 25 metres unaided, meaning that just over one million children in the UK are potentially unsafe in and around water!
