Learn to Swim
Swimming Programs
Welcome to Gosford City Aquatic Centres Swimming Programs. Considering the frightening level of child drowning in Australia each summer, having your children taught to swim should be equally as important as their education. We all know the statistics, so now is the time to enrol in our swimming programs, fully accredited by Austswim and Swim Australia.
The philosophy of the learn to swim is to provide a high quality, consistent and progressive program. This promotes a fun, active and healthy lifestyle.
In addition, the principle of the program follows guidelines by Royal Lifesaving "Swim and Survive"
Learn To Swim
Our integrated Learn to swim program covers a range of nine levels.
Aqua Play, designed for parents, carers and babies to enhance water awareness and child development and finishing with Transition. At this level your child will experience a smooth change from learn to swim into squad training. We teach the beginner butterfly and introduce light strengthening activities. The streamline competitive dive is introduced and fine tuned for children aiming to race for swim club or school carnivals.
Below is an illustration higlighting the progression your child would follow, eventually leading to squad training.
