Group Swimming Lessons
Babies and Children
Splash Swim School (UK) Ltd runs group lessons during the
term time. Lessons are a maximum of 30 minutes long. There
are a maximum of 8 swimmers per group. All teachers are CRB
Enhanced checked and are fully qualified swimming teachers.
Adult and Child Classes (Ages 4 months to 3 years)
For ages 4 months to 3 years old, these classes are the
ideal way to give your child the early stage skills needed
for swimming whilst having a great time! The teacher will
lead fun, playful and purposeful swimming activities with
songs, toys and games. Splash teachers have undergone
additional training for this age group to ensure that your
child is safe and has an appropriate lesson to help their
entire development. One adult per child is needed in the
water, if this is difficult for you (e.g. twins) please
contact us to find out if an additional helper is available.
Children move up between 3 and three and a half years old to
Ducklings.
Ducklings (Ages 3 and 4)
1:4 teachers to pupil ratio always guaranteed, with a
maximum of 8 children in a lesson. For children aged 3 and 4
years old. Swimming activities are often changed to hold the
young swimmer’s attention, building water confidence and
developing fundamental swimming techniques through
structured play and toys. Children who are nervous, or are
unable to swim around with aids confidently may be better
doing the Adult and Child or Private lessons for their first
term. Children move up when aged 5, or when they can swim 5
metres on their front or back without any buoyancy aids to
Non-Swimmers.
Non-Swimmers
Ages 5 and over, for those who are not yet consistently
swimming 5 - 10 metres on their front and back without
buoyancy aids. Children can be fast tracked from Ducklings
to Non Swimmers if they are swimming 5 metres unaided
without buoyancy aids. . Children who are nervous, or are
unable to swim around with aids confidently may be better
doing the Ducklings or Private lessons for their first term.
