Swim Academy
Stroke fundamentals through competitive squad work.
The promise
What you can expect from Swim Academy.
Three things that hold across every term, every coach, every cohort. If we ever fall short on any of them, a coordinator will tell you before you have to ask.
02
Coaches who count strokes.
Pool-deck instructors who stay with the squad. You see the same coach in week one and in week twelve.
03
Termly assessments, on paper.
A written report each term: what your swimmer practised, what they've mastered, what's close, and what's next.
The level ladder
7 levels, written down.
A learner only moves up when their coach has signed off the criteria for the level. No surprises, no quietly bumping learners forward to clear a class.

Inside the term
How a term in Swim Academy actually plays out.
The same shape every term: placement, rehearsal, mock, and a final assessment that families show up to. Calendar pinned to the family app from week one.
- Week 101
Placement swim. The coach sets the level, agrees the goal for the term, and books recurring lane time.
- Mid-term02
Skill check-in. A short written note via the family app, so there are no surprises at term end.
- Week 1003
Mock assessment. Swimmers rehearse the criteria so the real one is a confirmation, not a test.
- Term-end04
Assessment, certificate and a next-level preview, plus the invoice for the coming term.

From a family in the program
By the end of his first term he could float on his back without me holding him. By his third term he was racing his older sister. The coaches actually know the kids.
Common questions
Swim Academy, in quick answers.
The questions families and learners ask most about this program. If yours isn’t here, the coordinator is one message away.
Ask a coordinatorLevel 1 is built for it. We start with floating supports, breath play and short submersions. Most water-shy children are blowing bubbles on their own within a few weeks.
