  • Outdoor shoes are not permitted in the changing rooms or on poolside. 
  • Please refrain from wearing jewellery during your lesson - including earrings. 
  • WARNING:  Please don’t use benches for changing your baby – they are raised and there is a real danger of babies rolling off and causing serious injury.  We advise that you bring along a changing mat from home to use to change your baby at floor level.

Why not buy one of our great value Starter Packs which contain everything you need for your swim lesson?
