School Age 

Classes for school age kids encourage water familiarity and personal safety in the water while developing a healthy respect for the child's own ability. Freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke and butterfly make up the four core strokes in the Y-Swim School programme.

School Age Levels

Our School Age classes are age and ability based, each child is assessed before they are put into a class and then reassessed during the term to monitor progress and the continuing progression of skills.

These levels begin with Water Confidence and progress through to preparing children for squad levels.

 

Lesson Duration

Lessons vary in time from 30 minutes to 45 minutes depending on the level. The ratios of the classes also vary depending on the level of the class.

 

Lesson Ratios And Content

Our beginner Water Confidence class has a maximum of four children to one instructor, and works on building the child’s confidence to put their face in the water, float on their front and back and enjoy moving through and playing in the water.

The top level Swim 4 is 45 minutes long and has a maximum of eight children. This level is an introduction to squads where the instructor is on deck, coaching drills to the swimmers with an element of fitness.
