Bury St Edmunds Leisure Centre's Swimming Lessons program is the perfect opportunity for children to learn this essential life skill in a secure and supportive environment. With lessons available for 50 weeks of the year, excluding a brief Christmas break, children can continuously progress and develop their swimming abilities.
The lessons are conducted by our team of qualified teachers, who closely monitor and assess each child's progress on a regular basis. This ensures that they are on track to reach their full potential. Parents can keep a close eye on their child's progress by accessing the home portal, where they can view updates and milestones achieved.
Each lesson comprises 25 minutes of active teaching, providing ample time for children to dive into the world of swimming. An additional 5 minutes is dedicated to administration and changeover, ensuring a smooth and efficient experience for all participants. The cost of these lessons is £29.70 per month, payable via Direct Debit.
For those seeking a more personalised approach, we also offer one-to-one and two-to-one swimming lessons upon request. This allows for focused attention and tailored guidance to enhance the learning experience. Booking swimming lessons is a breeze for both existing and new members, with existing members able to log in and new members able to register on our Swim Academy portal. Simply select the appropriate class based on the child's ability, choose a suitable day and time, and complete the registration and payment details.
To ensure maximum effectiveness, our Swimming Lessons program follows Swim England's Learn To Swim pathway. This structured approach ensures that children's skills are developed systematically and safely. With each stage of the pathway, children are motivated through an award scheme, providing a tangible incentive to progress and achieve new milestones.
We also offer a special treat for our youngest water enthusiasts! Our Swim Academy provides a complimentary 4-week course for babies aged up to 18 months. This course serves as a gentle introduction to the water and teaches basic skills in a fun and engaging manner. We believe that it's never too early to start building confidence in the water.
Swimming isn't just for the little ones! We understand the importance of catering to individuals of all ages and abilities. That's why we offer adult swimming lessons that cater to individuals of varying experience, ability, and fitness levels. Whether you prefer group lessons for the social aspect or one-to-one sessions for additional focus, our adult swimming lessons have got you covered.
Furthermore, we also offer a specialised program for children with learning disabilities at our Kingfisher Leisure Centre. This program is designed to provide a safe and inclusive environment where these children can learn and enjoy the benefits of swimming at their own pace.
In summary, Bury St Edmunds Leisure Centre's Swim Academy is the go-to destination for children and adults alike to learn swimming. From our comprehensive swimming lessons for kids, personalised options, and special programs for babies and individuals with learning disabilities, we strive to provide a well-rounded and inclusive experience for all. So, dive right in and join us on this incredible aquatic journey!
