Holiday Crash Courses

Each week of the school holidays the Shirley Swimming Pool offers a fast track teaching program for all levels and abilities of children. The high standard of tuition is extended to one hour classes each morning. The intensive course is guaranteed to progress the children quickly. These courses are open to regular weekly swimmers and especially useful for those busy families who can not manage after school lessons. Crash course swimming lessons for children in the school holidays are filling quickly. Classes for every level take place each afternoon for five days and the intensity can really give the children’s swimming a boost. They remember the previous day’s lesson and with an hour in the water progress can be remarkable. Main pool classes now have a two hour session, one hour being supervised play.






















Improve your swimming and have lots of fun!
