Scheduled Courses
All courses, except Holiday Courses, are scheduled to run during the ESF school term time. See below for swim dates.
​
Registration for our scheduled courses will close approximately one week before the start of term. Those that register for our scheduled courses enjoy a guaranteed place in class for the term, lower rates per class, and the accumulation of Paddle Points to offset against future purchases. Scheduled courses are subject to our usual Terms & Conditions.
​
If you fail to register for our scheduled courses, you can choose to join our Drop In Classes until the next registration period opens up. Please make sure you subscribe to the newsletter and/or our social media channels for updates (scroll to the bottom of this page).​​
Drop In Classes
All Baby & Tots classes are run as Drop In Classes.
​
We may offer Drop In Classes on our Kids Programme where scheduled classes are not at capacity.
​​
Parents/guardians of students (adults accompanying Tots are regarded as students) may enter the pool in designated areas if available and upon registration via the Drop In Classes link below. Due to capacity and insurance restrictions, non-students must register and pay a small fee. Students may join parents/guardians in this area before or after lessons without additional fees. There is no time restriction, as long as it is between 9am and 12pm. We expect you to be considerate of other swimmers.
​
​
Our existing Terms & Conditions apply.
​
Children go to classes alone
​This is the fastest and easiest way for the child to learn to trust their coach and subsequently to learn how to swim. When the guardian is there, the child is more likely to refuse instructions from any adult. For children not yet used to taking lessons, we respectfully ask the guardian to be out of sight.
If you are not comfortable with this arrangement, please do consider joining our Baby & Tots class or arrange for private lessons where you can accompany your child.
