Wednesday 10 April 2024

This term we are launching our new Teen Beginner and Teen Intermediate Learn to Swim classes for ages 13 to 18.

These specially designed classes will run alongside our existing Youth Beginner classes, which will focus on swimmers aged 8 to 12.

Who are these classes for?

These classes are perfect for students aged 13 to 18 who are just starting out on their Learn to Swim journey.

How does it work?

  • Students learn with peers of a similar age and ability in the pool.
  • Lessons begin with a focus on building water confidence and introducing basic strokes and survival techniques.
  • The next step is to build on these foundations and progress to the same skills as our Level 5 and 6 swimmers.
  • Once these skills are acquired, students have the option to join the regular Level 1A to 9 classes.

Students who are currently enrolled in our Youth Program will continue their enrolment as is. If they are over the age of 12 please to chat to one of our Aquatic Services Officers about other class options that may be a better fit.

If you would like to know more about these new class options, talk to our friendly Aquatic Service Officers or reception staff.

Alternatively, you can email us at yarraleisure@yarracity.vic.gov.au or call us at 9205 5522.
