Kings & Vikings Pathways
At Kings Swim School, we’re proud to offer a complete swimming pathway that supports swimmers at every stage of their journey—from babies and pre-schoolers through to competitive athletes. Whether your child is just starting in our baby and pre-school lessons or progressing through our after-school programmes, SwimFit squads, or the Vikings Swim Squad, we’re here to help them achieve their goals.
The best part? You don’t have to change locations as your swimmer advances—you’ll always know Kings is their swim home. We also do our best to accommodate siblings swimming on the same days and times to make life a little easier for busy families.
At Kings, we focus on skill development, safety, and most importantly, fostering a love for swimming in a supportive, family-friendly environment.

Our technique based programme for children 5 years and up is designed and implemented by industry leading Olympic Coach Todd Mason
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.
