YMCA Swim School at Cameron Pools
Term 2 starts 29th April. Enrol today!
Learn to swim with our qualified instructors
If you’ve been putting off getting your children swimming – or learning to swim yourself – now is the time to take that step! Regardless of age or ability, there’s a learn to swim programme to suit every family and individual at Cameron Pool & Leisure Centre managed by YMCA.
We offer everything from baby classes through to classes for adults – and while each level has group lessons, there’s always the additional option of private tuition.
Swim School terms are generally 10 weeks long, and we offer free assessments to ensure that all swimmers are placed in a class that will suit their capabilities and age. With a dedicated teaching pool kept at a comfy temperature, it’s a supportive, safe environment to learn the essential skills of swimming and water safety.

Our Programmes
Baby & Preschool Swimming Lessons
Babies, toddlers and preschoolers are adventurous, learning and discovering new things every day. While your baby or toddler develops motor skills, independence and water confidence, you’ll learn important in and around water safety concepts too.
School Age Swimming Lessons
Whatever your child’s experience with swimming, YMCA Auckland’s school age classes are ability based and cater to all levels of experience. Classes are based on structured progressions with a strong emphasis on skill execution and water safety.
Squad Training
Classes for adults and teenagers (16 and over) and skill based training squads. Sessions focus on both technique and fitness, providing structured progressions, while increasing endurance in all strokes.
