We can’t wait to welcome you to Puddle Ducks at Queen’s School – in the meantime, here’s some information that we hope you find useful.

Location: The Queen’s (Lower) School 

Parking: Access to the free car park is through the main school gates, parking is available in front of the Lower School building. The pool building is situated through the main blue front doors; please turn left, past the play area and you will find the pool building situated on your left hand side.

Essential Information:

  • All shoes MUST be removed outside of the changing rooms and strictly a no shoes policy on the poolside
  • Please put all rubbish in the bins provided and take nappies home with you. No nappies (swim or standard) are to be left on site.
  • Children MUST wear swimming hats during Swim Academy lessons  - please find our range of swimming hats available at our shop here

If your child is attending our Floaties, Splashers or Kickers classes they must comply with our 'Double Nappy' policy. Please use an approved snug-fitting neoprene (or other similar fabric) swim nappy such as our Puddle Ducks swim nappy. Under this, your child will need a reusable cotton swim nappy with a disposable liner such as our Eco NappyWrap & Liner or a disposable swim nappy. 

The design of our Puddle Ducks swim nappy (stretchy neoprene with snug fitting deep waistband and leg cuffs) ensures that all ‘little accidents’ stay inside the nappy with the reusable cotton swim nappy or disposable swim nappy underneath providing an extra layer of protection (and making any ‘accidents’ so much easier to get rid of!). 

TIP: A swim nappy needs to be snug around the legs and waist to do its job properly (but not too tight!)

You can find lots more useful information about attending our swim classes on our FAQs page

Exclusivity: Puddle Ducks have exclusive use during hire times.

Photography: It is acceptable to carry phones with you and to take photos in 'Splash Time', however, please take great care not to include other children/parents from the class (unless you have their permission) and do not use your phones in the changing rooms. Please request the authorization of any photos being taken during class times by the teacher prior to photos being take.
