Dabblers (swimmers 3 - 5 years)

Preschool swimming classes developing skills and stamina.

To join a Dabblers class, children must be three years old and have achieved specific key swimming skills. They must also be mature enough to be in a class without their parent.

Our Dabblers love to swim! As soon as they gain the arm strength to lift their head to breathe, they are able to swim at least a width, and often much further. We help them develop their balance and coordination further, to move gracefully through the water. They also learn to dive for treasure at the bottom of the pool and the gentle art of relaxation through floating. We work towards the recognised national swim badges (both STA STAnley badges and the 5m, 10m and even 25m distance badges). All children learn to swim basic front crawl, back crawl and breast stroke through clever use of analogies and games - without even realising it!

"I found it!"

"Where are the other rings?"
