Kids Swim Classes

Bomaderry Aquatic Centre - Shoalhaven Swim Sport Fitness, a local swimming club in Nowra, is thrilled to announce our upcoming swimming event!

At Shoalhaven Swim School, we pride ourselves on offering comprehensive aquatic programs for kids of all ages and abilities. As a proud partner of the Royal Life Saving Society Swim & Survive Program and a member of the Aquatics & Recreation Institute, we are dedicated to providing a safe and enjoyable environment for children to learn vital water safety skills.

Our programs are designed with active learning in mind and are structured into skill strands, ensuring a balanced and instructional approach to aquatic education. We offer three levels of the Swim and Survive programs: Wonder, Courage, and Active.

Wonder, the first level, is a parent and child program that focuses on water familiarisation and bonding through songs, games, and activities. It is suitable for children aged 6 to 36 months.

For children aged 3 to 5 years, our Courage program builds on water familiarisation and aims to establish water confidence through 5 stages. Activities and exercises are tailored to each child's abilities, helping them develop their skills at their own pace.

Active, designed for school-aged children from 5 to 14 years old, aims to further develop swimming skills and water safety practices. With 8 stages to progress through, children will achieve key milestones such as the ability to perform freestyle/backstroke (75m), breaststroke (50m), and butterfly (25m) strokes.

Our instructors hold an AUSTSWIM Teacher of Swimming and Water Safety qualification and undergo regular training to ensure they are equipped with the latest techniques and knowledge in the field.

If you have any questions or if your child has specific needs, our Aquatics Education Coordinator will be more than happy to assess and recommend the best class for your child. We understand that every child is unique, and we strive to create a supportive and inclusive environment for all.

At Bomaderry Aquatic Centre - Shoalhaven Swim Sport Fitness, we also offer Intensive Holiday Swimming Lessons programs during school holidays. These programs are designed to fast-track your child's progress and provide them with additional opportunities to refine their skills.

To find out more information and to pre-register your child for our kids swim classes, please contact your nearest centre. We are here to assist you every step of the way and ensure that your child's swimming journey is both enjoyable and rewarding.
