Children's Swimming Lessons

At Brook Leisure Centre, we understand the significance of children's swimming lessons as an essential life skill and form of exercise. Our centre offers affordable and comprehensive children's swimming classes for all age groups and skill levels. We acknowledge that every child has a unique learning pace and level of comfort in the water. Therefore, our experienced instructors tailor the lessons to meet each child's individual needs, ensuring that they acquire the necessary skills to stay safe and confident in the water. 

Lessons are available throughout the year and lasting 30 minutes each week. Parents also have the option to watch their children poolside in our viewing gallery. Enrollment is open and pupils may join at any point in time.

What is Foundation ( 4 years and over) and what will they learn?

Aim - Our foundation swimming lessons are designed for school-aged kids who are beginners or completely new to swimming. These lessons include core swimming skills with a big focus on how to stay safe in and around water.

 

Focus - Foundation classes consist of 3 levels which swimmers work towards, each designed to introduce, develop and master water confidence, essential swimming skills and stroke development techniques.

By the end of this course, your child will be able to swim 10 metres unaided. They’ll have also learnt the basics of all 4 swimming strokes (front crawl, backstroke, breastroke and butterfly).

What Development (able to swim 15 metres plus) and what will they learn?

Aim - Development classes are a level above foundation lessons and are for children who already have a good basis of swimming skills and who are able to swim 15m unaided. Like our foundation classes, these cover various ability levels, ensuring each child feels comfortable in the water.

 

Focus - These lessons will cover more swimming essentials including developing technique across all 4 strokes, an introduction to aquatic sports and basic water survival and rescue skills.

The skills your child will learn in these classes will also contribute to them achieving their Bronze, Silver and Gold milestone awards. Not only will reaching these goals give kids a sense of achievement, but each milestone will help turn them into self-sufficient swimmers who are confident in the pool.
