Swimming lessons at Sleaford Leisure Centre

Here at Sleaford Leisure Centre our swimming lessons are designed to cater for all ages and abilities, from beginners to advanced swimmers. All of our teachers are professional, passionate and pupil-focused and will ensure you and your children are in safe hands in the water. Whether you want to improve your water confidence, stay safe in the water or become an expert swimmer, our experienced instructors are here to help you achieve your goals!

Here are some of the things that you can expect in your lessons here:

  • Lessons for pupils 3 months and older.

  • Additional Lead Teachers on poolside to help children with progression and help new starters.
  • Access to Swim For All, Swim For Family, and Swim for Fitness sessions included with swim lesson memberships.

Please contact rosanna.abbott@gll.org for more information.

Short Course Swimming Lessons

Keep an eye out for our Swim School Short Courses over the school holidays. 

Running Monday to Friday, half an hour every day with our qualified teachers gives children the consistency throughout the week to develop. We have lesson plans designed to help children at all levels develop their swimming techniques, build their confidence and let them have fun! These are perfect for introducing your child to the world of swimming or giving them that extra little boost to pass the stage they are currently at!

You can book your spaces online or via the Better UK app.

*These spaces are extremely limited, for more information or to secure your place, please contact at rosanna.abbott@gll.org

 

Swim School Distance Days

Most of our Swim School stages have distance criteria that need to be met before moving up. For those pupils that need the extra opportunity to hit that distance goal we run our Distance Days! Held during certain school holidays and open to all children (free for Swim School members!), why not try to get that milestone ticked off and maybe even get a badge and certificate afterwards.

Keep an eye out for our next distance day date! Places are likely to go quickly!

If you are interested, please contact Rosanna at the following email address: rosanna.abbott@gll.org

Badges and certificates are available to purchase.
