Stronger, safer swimmers start here.

Let’s start at the beginning, together. Sow the seeds for a lifetime love of swimming and essential swimming skills. Here’s what you can expect from our water familiarisation programs.

Swim & Play includes two swimming programs for babies through to toddler/kindergarten designed to teach your swimmer water familiarisation, water safety, and essential skills. Swimmers start with learning a range of skills, including kicking, floating and submerging, and progress to jumping into the pool and solo swimming.

The classes focus is for kids to feel confident in the water at a young age within a safe environment. Click here to find your nearest swim school today.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens in a Torpedoes lesson?

In the Torpedoes class, children continue to develop their freestyle and backstroke kick. Children progress into this class by achieving the Glides certificate or by graduating from our Kindergarten 2 classes.

The swimming lessons in our Torpedoes level form the main building blocks for teaching the freestyle stroke. Swimmers in these lessons will learn how to perform a freestyle (Torpedo) kick and will also develop their backstroke kick in preparation for the Marlins swimming class.

What Merit Awards will swimmers receive?
  •  Freestyle (Torpedo) kick with board
What happens when a swimmer graduates Torpedoes?

The “torpedo” kick is a very important fundamental skill  in learning freestyle, as the stronger the kick, the easier it will be for the child when arm stroking is introduced in our Marlins swimming level.
