Waterworld's Learn to Swim program is a skills-based system. Students will advance to the next level once the skills for the given level have been achieved.
- We continuously assess students' skills and place them into their appropriate levels.
- Parents/caregivers have access to the child’s online account, allowing them to monitor the child’s progress.
- We focus on fundamental building blocks of learning to swim, progressing towards teaching water confidence and stroke efficiency to support safety around water.
- Swimming lessons are offered on a school term basis. Existing members are given priority to enrol for the following term.
