Children's Swimming Lessons: 2.5 - 14 years
Where Children Love to Learn
At Parafield Gardens Swim School we pride ourselves in our Children's Learn to Swim program. We structure each class from Tadpoles right up to Whales to include Stroke Development, Safety Skills and Water Familiarization.
Our Learn to Swim Program is designed to progress children through each class level. When children have mastered the skills required in their class they move to the next level where new skills and longer distances are taught. Children learn at different rates and will progress through the classes in their own time. However, our teachers are trained to give them a guiding hand and plenty of encouragement to help them master the techniques required to help them be confident and safe swimmers.
You can have confidence that joining our Learn to Swim Program will ensure your children progress through a well designed and structured system during their learning journey with us.
