DOLPHIN PROGRAM: TRANSITION, LEVEL 1 – 4 (3 TO 6 YEARS)

Our Pre-school program for children aged three to six years builds on lessons learnt in Baby Swim, however this does not prevent inexperienced children from entering the program or children with previous experience from another swim school. The program is designed to prepare them for life around water, while teaching them fundamental swimming techniques and skills and to enable young swimmers to develop water awareness, confidence and independence in a class without a parent. Children are placed in ability-appropriate lessons to ensure a suitable learning level environment.

Children at this level are educated by:

  • Reinforcing basic water skills such as back floats, front floats, gliding front and back, kicking front and back, eyes in exhaling and blowing bubbles.
  • Developing independent movement on both front and back.
  • Encouraging safe water practices, teaching basic water safety.
  • Commencing the development of correct stroke technique.
  • Basic rescue techniques.

Maximum 4 children per class.
