Adult & Pre-school Class AUTUMN TERM

The Adult and Pre-school programme teaches children to be happy and safe in the pool. It develops essential water confidence and lifesaving skills. Children learn to swim on their front and back, using doggy paddle and back paddle strokes, with a strong leg kick action.

Each 30 minute lesson includes a wide variety of water toys, resources and games to encourage development of the key water skills, in a structured lesson environment. During each lesson, children learn to enter and exit the water safely. They learn skills such as push and glides, floating on the front and back, jumping into the water from the pool side, turning and returning to the wall, blowing bubbles, and submerging the face.

Our class sizes are small (maximum 4 per class) offering benefits such as personalised attention and activities tailored to individual needs, leading to faster skill development, better safety for learners, increased engagement, confidence and overall enjoyment.

Your child will be awarded a free badge and certificate for each term of lessons that they attend. The Adult and Pre-school lessons follow progression through the Swim England National Plan for Teaching Swimming (formally ASA).

The Adult and Pre-school lessons will focus on Duckling Award skills.

All awards can be achieved with or without floatation equipment or support. We provide disc armbands for your child to use, or they can use their own disc arm bands.

All lessons are taught by fully qualified and experienced Level 2 Swim England/STA Swimming Teachers, with full DBS, Teacher Rescue Award qualification, and Swim England Safeguarding in Aquatics trained.
