Our learn to swim programme is an excellent way for your child to develop vital life skills while becoming confident, capable and safer in the aquatic environment. Lessons for younger children are in the learners pool, with older children graduating to the main pool for their lessons.
For information about lessons for pre-schoolers go to our Infants and pre-schoolers page.
All ages, ability levels and backgrounds are catered for in our swim school programme. We have lessons for toddlers from as young as 4 months old, through to older children and adults.
Swim school fees at the Aquatic Centre vary per class each term and there are no lessons on public holidays.
The Waitaki Aquatic Centre runs school holiday block lessons. We provide two holiday lessons each morning for five consecutive days during the holiday periods.
