Swimming Lessons

Welcome to our SWIM-LINK Programme. Children from all ages can begin to learn this valuable life skill at Sportslink.

Classes offer a safe, encouraging, and fun environment for children to learn and develop as they grow. Children as young as 6 months can start our Aqua Tots classes with their Parents/Guardians and then start our Seahorses assisted swimming class from age 4.

Once basic water confidence is achieved children can start on the pathway to developing all 4 swimming strokes: including front crawl, back crawl, breaststroke, and butterfly.

From Sea Turtles to Orca’s children are brought through games, drills and many swimming skills to perfect their strokes. Our 7-step process is designed to develop children’s swimming techniques where they retain such skills as they grow up into adulthood.

Options to progress to competitive swimming, water safety and leisure swimming are all available following completion of the 7-step pathway.

Each participant in lessons will be assessed on a continual basis by their class teacher. Assessments are based on a detailed grading of each criterion for each of the strokes/skills required at each class. Following assessments, participants will be advised if they have completed their current class and move forward into the next level of our lesson programme, or, if they require further work within their current classes.

We have a home portal in place where a parent / guardian can log on and see their own child’s progress.
