Established in September 2006 Queenswood Swim School has developed a good reputation within the local community for safety, good organisation and expert teaching.
Lessons for all ages and levels of ability
Queenswood Swim School offers lessons to suit all abilities, for children from 3 years old to teenage. Lessons are also available for adults, from non-swimmers to advanced, and for those who wish to swim to keep fit.
All our teachers hold a full qualification under the ASA (Amateur swimming association) or STA (Swimming teachers association), and offer a friendly approach to teaching. Our instructors regularly teach in the water, which allows pupils to develop their confidence whilst applying practices and exercises that help all pupils to reach their full potential.
We run the ASA award system, which offers a wide range of skills and distance awards for the pupils to achieve.
For that little bit of extra safety and parents' peace of mind, we have a fully qualified Pool Lifeguard on duty at all times.
During the times that the Swim School operates we have exclusive use of a fabulous 25m x 4 lane heated swimming pool, with a shallow end of 1m depth, where most 3yr olds can stand, and a deep end of 1.85m, which allows us to teach diving as one of our disciplines.
Queenswood Swim School courses normally run over a period of 11 weeks during the autumn, spring and summer school terms. The classes are 30 minutes in duration, and the swim school currently operates on a Monday between 1230 - 1300, 1545 - 1745, Thursday between 1615 - 1845 and Saturdays between 0945 - 1215.
Our adult classes are currently on a Friday at 12:00 noon during school term times and run for 30 minutes. They cover all standards, from non-swimmers to advanced.
From 5th January 2009, adult classes run on Mondays at 13:15 to 13:45 and children's classes on Thursdays at 18:15 to 18:45. (These new times are in addition to the regular Queenswood Swim School Classes.)
Don't want to learn or your child to learn to swim in a group environment ? Maybe you just need to gain a bit of confidence or improve you technique ? Whatever age or standard you are we can offer you private lessons ( 1-1 ) or ( 1-2 ) on Saturdays from 1215 - 1315 and 1500 - 1630. Please call us for further details.
We also offer intensive swimming, or "Crash", courses during most of the school holidays, which are a great introduction for any new swimmer, or an excellent boost for swimmers of any standard, from beginner to advanced.
