School-age swimming lessons
Helping kids aged 5+ master technique, build endurance, and gain confidence in the water.
Helping kids aged 5+ master technique, build endurance, and gain confidence in the water.
Our school age programme takes children from beginners to confident, competent swimmers. With a focus on correct technique, water safety and endurance, lessons are structured so progress happens as soon as they’re ready. Every session is supportive and fun, designed to keep kids engaged, smiling, and building a lifelong love for swimming.
Children aged 5 and over, grouped by skill level:
Trusted by families for generations, with a proven approach to learning that goes beyond the basics.
30-minute lessons, once a week, blending technique drills, skill practice, and fun challenges.
Small groups to allow for personalised attention and feedback.
A guardian should remain onsite for every session. Comfortable viewing areas are available so you can watch your child’s progress.
Children are assessed continuously and move up as soon as they’re ready. Each milestone is recognised with a certificate to celebrate their progress.
If you’re not sure what level is right, we can help. Our team will do a quick assessment over the phone or in person to make sure your child is placed in the right group. You may already have a good sense of their ability, but we’ll confirm so they start at the best stage for their skills. And if you’d like to see how it works before committing, we offer a free trial lesson so you and your child can experience Hilton Brown first-hand.
We focus on freestyle and backstroke in our beginner and breather levels.
For us, it’s a swimmer who can confidently complete at least 200m without stopping and with strong technique.
