TIMETABLE & FEES
Make learning to swim fun at our Lake Macquarie swimming school!
At Valentine Swim School, we operate fun, confidence-boosting swimming lessons in our clean, heated pools. Our lessons generally run for 10 weeks, the length of a school term.
If your child needs to strengthen their skills or gain extra confidence in the water, ask about our intensive learn to swim and stroke correction classes, conducted during most school holidays. These programs encourage your child to work on their not-so-strong points on a daily basis, helping accelerate their overall swimming capabilities. Regular instruction leads to faster progress.
View our term schedules and pricing below. To book your child in, please contact our Lake Macquarie swim instructors today.
