Swimming Lessons Restart

We are pleased to let you know that swimming lessons will restart the week beginning 25th September.

We will be running as many of the classes we can at the moment but can’t put them all on.
The majority of the younger swimming classes will be running for this block.
We hope to have ALL of the swimming class up and running as normal in January.

We’re aware that some children may now be more advanced than what they were a year ago, and Ailsa will try to accommodate these as best a possible but a lot of classes are fully booked and it may not be possible. Please be rest assured that we will always teach the children to the best of their abilities no matter which class they are in.

Most of you may have already received an email from Ailsa regarding lessons for your children.
If you haven’t yet, please be patient, she will get to you all in the next few days.

Please check your junk folders just in case any emails end up in there and have been missed.

If you did have your children booked with us and have decided not to carry on or don’t need the spaces here anymore, please also let us know so that we can free up spaces for anyone else.

Thank you for your patience over the last year regarding swimming lessons, the staff are looking forward to getting them going again and can’t wait to see the children in swimming.
