Learn to Swim Programme

We believe that swimming is an essential life skill that provides children with the ability to participate in sport, and enjoy the ocean, lakes and pools safely and with confidence.

At the Murray Rose Aquatic & Fitness Centre, our Swimming lessons are designed to the public and are designed a lifelong skill to improve your child’s confidence in the water, build swim safety awareness and provide a pathway into aquatic sporting programmes such as Swim Squads and Water Polo.

Our curriculum and framework are designed to maintain the highest standard of technical proficiency and water safety standards.
