Empower your child with an essential life skill
At Swimfun, we believe that swimming is a vital life skill that opens doors to a world of aquatic adventures. Our 4+ children’s swimming lessons are designed to provide your child with a carefully designed and enjoyable learning experience, building a strong foundation of swimming skills and fostering a lifelong love of the water.
Preparing your child for swimming success
Over the course of our 4+ children’s swimming lessons, your child will learn a variety of strokes, including front crawl, backstroke, breaststroke, and butterfly. Your child will also learn how to enter and exit the water safely, become comfortable with submersion, and recognise potential hazards in and around the water.
By gradually introducing new challenges and celebrating each achievement, we foster a positive learning environment. This helps your child build confidence in their swimming abilities, empowering them to explore and enjoy the water.
Finally, the 4+ curriculum provides a strong foundation for future swimming endeavours. Whether your child enjoys recreational swimming, pursues competitive swimming, or explores other water sports, the skills and confidence gained in these lessons will serve them well throughout their lives.
Key learning outcomes
The Swim England Learn to Swim framework offers a structured and rewarding journey for children to develop essential swimming skills and build lifelong confidence in the water.
Through a series of progressive stages, children gradually acquire key aquatic skills, starting with basic water familiarity and advancing to more challenging techniques like strokes and water safety. This structured approach ensures a safe and supportive learning environment in which swimmers can learn at their own pace and celebrate their achievements along the way.
As swimmers progress through each stage, they gain a sense of accomplishment, boosting their confidence and encouraging them to continue their aquatic journey. The Swim England Learn to Swim framework not only teaches children how to swim but also instils valuable life skills such as discipline, perseverance, and a love for physical activity.
There are 10 key development stages; view and download our Swim England Stages PDF to find out more.
Stages 7-10
Children swimming in stages 7-10 are invited to join our Swimtrain programme. Swimtrain is a 60-minute session, charged at the standard membership fee. In addition to working towards the Swim England stages, this comprehensive internal programme offers a wider variety of pre-competitive skills and training methods. Many youngsters stay with us after completing Stage 10 as they enjoy this advanced training so much.
We do still offer standard 30-minute lessons for stages 7-10 if children just want to work towards the Swim England skills and achievements.
