Home lesson procedures

A parent is to check the pool and enclosed area for safety before each swimming lesson and remove potentially dangerous obstacles or wildlife.

Parents and pool owners are to check for correct chlorination and water quality, which must be at a level that the teacher considers suitable.

In the case where more than one child is participating in a swim class, and each child receives individual attention, the following requirements exist:

• Parental supervision in the pool area is required;
• Swimmers waiting for their turn must sit on the top steps and not move off these steps under any circumstances. This is to be made clear by both the teacher and parents.
• There is no running within the pool area.
• Diving or jumping into the pool is only allowed in the deep end under the teacher’s supervision.
• Please make sure you speak to us regarding wearing goggles before the class.
• Please remember to discuss any medical or concerns you have regarding your child.

Children are required to leave the pool and the pool area with the pool gate closed following each lesson.

Each pool must display CPR signage and comply with council regulations following the current Swimming Pools Act.

In the case of a thunderstorm or any electrical activity, swimming lessons are to be immediately suspended.

We want to ensure your swimming and water safety experience is a fun, educational and enjoyable experience.
