Swim Class 1

In Swimming School 1, children learn the fundamentals of swimming, such as body position, breathing, and kicking techniques. Instruction takes place mainly in the teaching pool, but during the course there may also be introductory visits to the deep pool. In the full-season Swimming School 1 course, participants may also begin practicing some Swimming School 2 skills as their abilities develop.

Starting level requirements

This course is intended for children aged 4–6 who are already confident in the water and ready to practise water skills more independently.
To participate in the course, the child should be comfortable going completely underwater without holding their nose. The child should be able to follow the swimming instructor’s guidance in a group, listen to instructions and participate in the activities without support from their own adult.
The child does not need to know how to swim yet.
We recommend that the child is at least 100 cm tall.

If the child is not yet comfortable going completely underwater or still needs a lot of support when practising in the water, we recommend starting with the Beginner Swimming School.

Objectives

In Swimming School 1, children learn the fundamental skills of swimming, including body position, breathing, and kicking techniques. Lessons take place primarily in the teaching pool (shallow pool), although children may also have opportunities to become familiar with the deep pool during the course. In the full-season Swimming School 1 course, participants may begin practicing some Swimming School 2 skills as their abilities develop. Each lesson lasts 30 minutes.

The goal is for children to learn to swim 5 metres on their front (front glide/swim) and 5 metres on their back (elementary backstroke). The course also includes practice in gliding, floating, diving, and developing overall aquatic competence.

A child is considered to have successfully completed Swimming School 1 when they achieve at least 5 out of 8 assessment criteria. After this, they may progress to Swimming School 2.

Please note: We also offer a limited number of Swimming School 1 groups specifically for children aged 7–12 years.
