Family swim passes must be issued by the Swim School and used within the current calendar year.
Make-up lessons will not be provided for absences that have not been notified to the Swim School via email. A minimum of two hours’ notice is required for group lessons and four hours’ notice for private lessons.

Instructors reserve the right to deny pool entry to any child without an appropriate or clean swim nappy.
Children enrolled in Level 4 and above are required to wear goggles and a swim cap during lessons to reduce eye irritation and hair loss. Some activities will be conducted without goggles to support water confidence and safety skills.
Swim nappies, goggles, and swim caps are available for purchase at the front counter.
