Learn to Swim

• Memberships are assigned per child. Each child in your family needs to have their own membership.
• Swimsmart school holiday programmes are not included in the membership but can be purchased in addition to your membership.
• When joining Swimsmart you will be asked a series of questions to ensure your child is put in the right level of class. If you would like this assessment reconsidered, you can book an in-water assessment online or with our Customer Experience staff.
• If you have previously had swimming lessons with Swimsmart, your child will be enrolled into the level they were previously assessed at unless you book an in-water assessment online or with our Customer Experience staff.
• A swim assessment is not required for Caregiver and Child lessons or Pre-schooler lessons.
• Grading will occur on an ongoing basis so your child progresses through levels as soon as they are ready.
• Step by step information on how to make a Swimsmart booking can be found on our Frequently Asked Questions page
• If you have any questions, please speak to our Customer Experience team.
