Enrolment & Fees
Enrolling in the Earth Angels Swim School is quick and straightforward. Lessons are offered at set times throughout the week and are open to children of all abilities. The program is run in small groups to ensure personalised guidance.
Fee information is available upon enquiry and may vary depending on the number of sessions booked. Parents are encouraged to contact the centre early, as places can fill quickly during busy terms.
Classes
Swim classes are tailored to support different developmental stages, from first water experiences to stroke introduction. Instructors focus on water familiarisation, basic techniques, and building confidence in a fun, low-pressure environment.
Whether your child is just starting out or ready for more advanced skills, the program helps them progress safely and positively. Children are encouraged at every level and supported to overcome fears and build skills gradually.
What age can children start swim lessons?
Most children can begin swimming lessons from around six months of age, though programs vary based on the provider and the child’s readiness. In early childhood settings, swim lessons often begin when children show comfort in the water and can follow basic instructions. Starting early helps children develop confidence and familiarity with the water, as well as essential safety and coordination skills that lay the foundation for independent swimming later on.
How often should my child attend swim lessons?
Consistency is key to building confidence and reinforcing swimming skills. Weekly lessons are generally recommended to help children retain what they’ve learned while staying physically comfortable and engaged. Some families opt for more frequent sessions during summer or intensive programs during holidays. The right frequency will depend on your child’s stage, comfort level, and your schedule—but a regular weekly class is often the best pace for steady progress.
What should my child bring to swimming lessons?
Children should bring swimmers, a towel, a swim cap (if required), and dry clothes to change into afterward. For younger children, swim nappies may be necessary. Some centres also require goggles, while others may provide them for beginners. Always check with the provider beforehand to confirm specific requirements. It’s also a good idea to pack a water bottle and comfort item if your child is new to the swim school routine.
