Namely during the week 22nd– 26th July - between 16.00 and 19.00 on each day, during the week 29th July – 2^nd August and during the week of  12^th – 16^th August - between 9.30 and 12.30 on each day.

The special rate for each one week course is £ 55.00 per child.

This year it will be open for children ASA Stage 1 – 7 also Babies and Toddlers from 3 months to 4 years old.

Under 4 yr olds will be working on water confidence and swimming ability, depending on their age group, plus having lots of fun along with a parent.

4 yo children, who will start School in September, will have the opportunity to experience swimming on their own ( ie without parents ) in preparation for doing so in September.

Stage 1 children will work on their water confidence and swimming ability with lots of fun activities too !

Hello everyone !

Especially those whose children normally attend our Thursday afternoon and evening classes.

Sadly, the weather is behaving in line with the forecasts, for a change and the snow is now falling continuously here.Unfortunately, our lane does not really figure, on our local council's priority list, when it comes to gritting and consequently we feel it could well become dangerous, even to those in a 4 x 4.

If snow continues to fall as predicted then there is every chance that you would be snowed in with us, even if you did manage to get here.

Consequently, in the interests of safety and the well being of all of our clients, especially the children, we sadly inform you that there will be no swimming lessons this afternoon and evening.

We will monitor the situation for Friday and Saturday and keep you informed here and on our Facebook page.

It's Monday,
It's the first day of the second half of our Spring Term
AND ........................
Coming straight after the BAFTA s.......
It's time to announce the the winners of .........
