Young swimmers will have a chance to grow their skills and confidence in the water with a new Learn to Swim Program set to commence at the Corowa Aquatic Centre in August.
Federation Council has announced the launch of its new Learn to Swim Program which will see classes offered every week on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays during the school terms.
Federation Council Mayor, Cr Pat Bourke said he was delighted to announce the program would be starting after Council received over 500 expressions of interest in the learn to swim program to be hosted at the Corowa Aquatic Centre earlier this year.
"The team at the Corowa Aquatic Centre have been working diligently to deliver a fun and affordable Learn to Swim Program that will teach local children the life-long skill of swimming, so they can be comfortable, strong and happy in the water," he said.
"Teaching your child or yourself to swim is one of the most important decisions you will make in life and our Corowa Aquatic Centre team are committed to promoting fun and enjoyment of all things water for swimmers of all abilities."
Lessons will be $16.00 per lesson, which includes the lesson and entry fee and for those children nominated on a family or child membership, they will be eligible for a discount on their lessons, which are priced at $14.00.
Enrolments for the Learn to Swim Program are now open, and parents are encouraged to complete the online enrolment form, or alternatively, attend the Corowa Aquatic Centre to complete a paper based form. View the Opening times.
Following the enrolment lodgment, a team member of the Corowa Aquatic Centre will be in contact with individual families with children aged over three, to arrange a time to complete a complementary assessment by a qualified swim instructor to determine children's skill level and suitable class allocation.
Swim Instructors will be available at the Centre on the following dates and times to undertake assessments:
Tuesday, 20 July: 9.00am – 1.00pm and 3.00pm – 6.00pm.
Thursday 22 July: 9.00am – 1.00pm and 3.00pm – 6.00pm.
Saturday 24 July: 8.30am – 12.30pm and 1.30pm – 4.30pm.
