School Age Swimming Lessons
At Kings we are passionate about what we do! We not only will teach your child to swim, but show them how to be safer in and around the water.
Our after school and weekend programme for primary and intermediate children aged 5+ is a structured level system and is skill based.
Instead of running a term by term approach, we run a perpetual programme so your child will be continually assessed and progress through the levels when they are ready (instead of having to wait until the next term).
This allows our swimming instructors to meet the individual needs of each swimmer.

Our After-School Programme: Why we are an industry leader!
- Learn-to-swim is a life skill: An inability to swim is a leading risk factor in drowning, it is the second highest cause of accidental drownings in New Zealand. We teach your child the basics of water confidence, enabling them to float unassisted from our earliest levels.
- Our success is a reflection of our professional approach to staff training: Our highly trained staff are provided weeks of hands-on training by our senior coaches, they start with the basics and move through our programme with regular assessment provided.
- We regularly review our teaching and training techniques: We don’t rest on our laurels at Kings, just because our staff have completed their training does not mean on-going support and improvement is not provided. We put our staff through regular training days to ensure your child is receiving the highest quality of lesson possible.
- The impact of learning-to-swim will last a lifetime: If your child knows how to swim at a young age, this skill is with them for life. Learning-to-swim is an essential life skill for children but there are so many benefits beyond just swimming. Introducing your child to swimming from a young age can have a substantial impact on their overall physical and mental health.
