All of our Pre School and Learn to Swim lessons are 25 minutes long.
Rookie lessons are 40 minutes long.
We offer two ways to pay for swimming lessons, the easiest being by Direct Debit.
A Direct Debit costs just £25.60 per month and also include free swimming for your child in any Active Blackpool family or casual swimming session. The direct debit will continue as your child progresses through their stages so you don’t need to remember to make payments and your child’s place will be secure.
You can also pay in advance block payments with 10 consecutive lessons costing £64.60. With this option we will send you email reminders when you have 3, 2 and 1 lessons remaining. As long as you top up before your child’s 10th lesson, they won’t lose their place.
The easiest way to book swimming lessons is online here.
Prefer to do it in person, no problem, just pop in to any centre and we can get your child set up set up and booked on.
Absolutely!
Awards and badges are a great way for your child to see the progress they are making, be proud of their achievements and stay motivated.
Each stage has several awards within it which your child must pass in order to progress. Click on the ‘Stages Explained’ buttons in the relevant lesson overview above to find out more.
Certificates and badges for all of the awards can be purchased from reception for £3.20.
We know it’s important for you to stay up to date with how your child is progressing on their lesson. We want our teachers to focus on the quality delivery of swimming lessons so they won’t always have time to speak individually to you after your child’s lesson.
So to make sure you are kept informed we make it easy by updating your child’s progress throughout their lesson to a digital platform which you can then view.
Once you’re registered you can check in any time.
