Better Swim School Half Term Activities
Are you looking for activities for your child for February half term to keep your little one busy during the school holidays? ONE NK has plenty on offer for children and families, with something available for everyone!
February Intensive Swim Course
Is your child an absolute beginner to swimming, and do you want them to gain water confidence quickly? Or maybe you would like your child to refine their swimming skills, to reach the next Stage of their Swim School classes? At ONE NK, we are running an intensive swim course over February half term, and this course is an ideal way to help children in Stages 1 and 2 to progress their swimming quickly.
These sessions will be running from Monday 17th February until Friday 21st February, with Stage 1 lessons at 9am and Stage 2 lessons at 9:30am.
Swim School Distance Day
At ONE NK, we believe that a huge part of a child’s swimming progression is recognising their achievements. That is why we will be beginning distance days, free for all swim school members to attend. These sessions will be all w children to attempt to swim a specific distance and attempt to earn themselves a badge and certificate. Children can choose to swim any distance, from 5 metres up to one mile.
This session will take part on Thursday 20th February between 4pm and 6pm and will operate as a drop-in session.
This session is free for all to attend - just book in at reception in advance so that we know who to expect!
Drop In Football Sessions
Each day of half term, we will be running drop-in football sessions on our 3G pitches for children and adults aged 8 and above. These sessions will run daily from 12pm-3pm and are priced at £2.50 per person. That's 3 hours of football for just £2.50!
Inflatable Swim Sessions
Inflatable is back!
Come along to our inflatable family fun and flume session Tuesday 18th February at 14:30. The session will be one hour long.
We will also have the learner pool and toddler splash pool open and full with toys for the little ones!
PLEASE NOTE - Only children aged 8 and over, who can swim a minimum of 25m competently, can use the inflatable.
Other New Sessions running at ONE NK include:
Parent and Toddler Swim Lessons
At ONE NK, we believe that children can begin learn to swim from any age. This is why we will be offering NEW weekly parent and toddler lessons. A fully trained Swim Teacher will be available during these sessions to offer support to parents, through advising the best possible ways to encourage their children to swim.
These sessions run weekly on Wednesday mornings. Parent and Infant classes will run at 11:30am, with Parent and Toddler lessons from 12pm.
Rookie Lifeguard Sessions
The Rookie Lifeguard programme gives your child the skills they need to be confident in the pool or the sea - which means peace of mind for you. Built into the programme are lessons in valuable survival, rescue and sport skills, giving children an opportunity to explore water safety and lifesaving skills.
Beginning on 27th February, we will be running NEW Rookie Lifeguard sessions at ONE NK. These sessions will run every Thursday evening at 6pm, and will be aimed at those children who have passed Stage 7 and want an alternative to Competitive Swimming.
Free Swim School Taster Sessions
We understand that signing your children up for a new swim school can be a daunting experience. What if your child doesn’t enjoy the lessons?
That is why we are now offering a free, no obligation taster session for new swim school members, to try out a lesson before signing up.
These sessions will be running on Monday evenings at 4pm and 6pm, and will are designed for children who would like to trial a lesson before committing to signing up for weekly sessions.
PLEASE NOTE - These taster sessions are only currently suitable for beginner swimmers up to Stage 2 due to pool space.
