2. All persons entering will be required to complete the Contact Tracing Sheets, the COVID-19 tracer app will be available for personal use but paper sheets will need to be completed by every person entering the facility NO EXCEPTIONS

3. Please observe social distancing guidelines, hand sanitizer will be available and any spectator is more than welcome to wear a mask within the facility.

4. Please keep your time within the facility as short as possible, come ready to swim and then get changed at home after your swim.
Showers will be available but again where possible do so at home after your swim to help limit time inside the facility.

5. Numbers will be limited to ONE parent, caregiver or spectator per client swimming aged 13years or under this applies to all Learn to Swim clients and NO EXCEPTIONS will be granted.

Swim School Manager Sarah Blackburn

Management Team

Sarah Blackburn, Daniel Ryan and Phillip Ryan are all responsible for the day to day running of the business


The pool complex was designed and built especially for TEACHING AND COACHING, and we believe we run one of the best teaching and coaching organisations in the world.


We have 2 teaching pools and both pools are well heated 

Water Quality

As well as daily testing a minimum of 3x per day. Our pools are independently tested every month and the results are always displayed in the reception area.

As we are a privately owned complex and mainly used as a teaching facility we don't have a large number of public swimmers attending the facility. Which means we can keep our water quality controlled and in the best possible condition for you our clients.

Main Pool

25m Training pool

The air is also heated to within 3oC - 4oC of the water temperature, this is essential for indoor pools to prevent condensation, so if you are sitting around, the air is warm, but it is ideal for the swimmers.
