Parent & Child (White Fin)

Our Parent and Child program is determined by a child’s age and commences at 6 months through to 3 years old. Parents are actively involved in teaching their children skills relating to water safety, water familiarisation and skill development.

Our classes are focussed on building a child’s self-confidence in the water. This is achieved through implementing structured and relaxed activities that provide children with the opportunity to develop and build their water-based skills.

We place a strong emphasis on swim skill attainment and general mobility in the water and believe that children learn best and do well in a fun and balanced class environment.

Our objective is for 3year old’s to attend swimming independent of their parent.  This is achieved by attaining the skills in the Rainbow Fin level.

Parent and Child classes are great for families to bond, build confidence, learn lifelong skills, meet new friends and just have a really fun time together.

Beginner Levels (Yellow Fin / Green Fin)

Students (4yrs and older) are taught the fundamentals of swimming and basic stroke development in Backstroke and Freestyle. Emphasis is placed on developing and strengthening kicking techniques, breathing, water independence and class participation.

At this level, children are particularly vulnerable around water and require focus and constant supervision.

Intermediate Levels - (Blue Fin)

Children are developing their swimming fitness and technique. Freestyle side breathing is learned, as well as breaststroke. A focus is to build each swimmer’s stroke technique through drills and repetition.

Advanced Levels - (Red Fin)

Swimming lessons increase to 45mins in the advanced levels, assisting to improve a student’s fitness and endurance. While building endurance, we also focus on developing student’s technique and training skills, through interval training and the use of the pace clock.

We cover all four strokes including tumble turns and diving skills at this level.

Squad Levels

Consolidating stroke technique remains a priority while also developing our swimmers speed and endurance.

We are committed to providing the strongest squad program in the state, through high participation, enjoyment & achievement.

Our passionate coaching team provide an exceptional environment utilising the latest in high level training systems and programming.

District, State and National level swimmers form a strong part of the Swimming Club Community

HOLIDAY PROGRAMS

During the second week of each school holiday period, we conduct 5-day intensive program for all ages and levels of swimming. The program consists of 5 x 45* minute lessons.

The Holiday Program is great for children who may be attending their first group lesson, or for those wanting to make some accelerated improvements to their swimming.

SCHOOL PROGRAMS

Our School Program provides students of all ages and abilities, the opportunity to learn to swim.  Our swimming program is complemented by water safety survival techniques and activities across all levels.

KA utilizes the ‘FIN’ Certificate system which has proven highly successful for over 25 years in learn to swim.  The ‘FIN’ system provides our team the framework to teach swimming in the most effective and efficient way.  We also include elements of Royal Life Saving’s ‘Swim & Survive’ program.

 For best results, we recommend schools enrol in a 2-week intensive swimming program. Typically, this seems to provide students with the best outcomes and the most improvement.  All students receive a Certificate at the conclusion of the program.
