School Age

Swimming Lessons

At King’s Swim School, we are passionate about delivering high quality swim education! Our goal is not only to teach your child how to swim but also to enhance their safety in, on and around water.

Our School Age Programme during the week and weekends is designed for primary and intermediate children aged 5 years and up, featuring a structured, skill-based level system. We recommend teenagers join our adult learn to swim programme.

Unlike traditional term-by-term approaches, we offer a perpetual programme that allows for continuous assessment. Your child can progress through the levels at their own pace, rather than waiting for the next term.

This approach enables our instructors to tailor their teaching to meet the individual needs of each swimmer, ensuring a personalised and effective learning experience.

Our Programme

From 4 years, 10 months and older

Learning to swim is a vital life skill - drowning remains a leading risk factor in accidents, particularly in New Zealand.

At Kings Swim School, we focus on building water confidence from the earliest levels, teaching your child to float unassisted and equipping them with essential skills for safety in, on and around water.

Our success stems from our commitment to staff training. Our highly trained instructors undergo weeks of hands-on training under the guidance of senior coaches, ensuring a thorough understanding of our programme.

Technical Teaching

We continuously review and enhance our teaching methods to maintain the highest standards. Ongoing support and training for our staff are fundamental to our philosophy, with regular training days to ensure your child receives top-quality lessons.

The impact of learning to swim extends beyond the pool. Children who learn to swim at a young age gain a lifelong skill that significantly contributes to their physical and mental well-being.

Introducing your child to swimming early can lead to lasting benefits that enrich their overall development.

School Age Lessons

Our experienced instructors provide comprehensive swim lessons that teach children the fundamentals of swimming strokes and technique.

With a focus on safety and fun, including front and back float, treading water and jumping off the swim blocks into deep water, our lessons create a supportive environment where children can develop their swimming abilities at their own pace.

We offer low student-to-instructor ratios and continuous assessments. If your child is ready to move up, the Deck Supervisor will assess them on a regular basis without waiting until the end of the term.
