This is the second time Lourita has won this award due to her passion for supporting local young swimmers to overcome their fears and build confidence in water. Congratulations Lourita!”.

"Andy is an outstanding swimming teacher who has made our toddlers genuinely excited about each lesson. Despite having closer pools, we gladly travelled further just to swim with him—he's simply unmatched. Both of our children instantly felt comfortable, encouraged by his playful yet professional style. Andy’s dedication is clear; he patiently explains the purpose behind each exercise, making lessons meaningful and engaging. We couldn't imagine a better teacher, highly recommended for anyone seeking a skilled, caring, and fun instructor! "

"Kieran loves his swimming lessons and is becoming so confident in the water! Helen knows Kieran so well and recently her astute and insightful feedback gave us a couple of areas to focus on - Kieran was ready to move up to the next stage a couple of weeks later as he knew exactly what he needed to work on!"
