Starting from 2.5 Years old, the Early Learning and Water Safety Program is all about getting your child confident and independent in the water.

The program has an emphasis on increasing their ability to swim without a parent or family member with them, as they begin to enter classes with one of our wonderful AUSTSWIM instructors. As well as gaining confidence, they will begin to learn the basics of Freestyle and Backstroke kicking, as well as independent floating and the importance of water safety.
