Swimming Lessons Wem

Swimming is a fantastic exercise and a key life skill that’s never forgotten once learned. It’s a sport for all ages, offering opportunities to compete, play water polo, dive, try synchronised swimming, or enjoy outdoor water sports.

At Wem Swimming and Lifestyle Centre our lessons follow the Swim England National Plan for teaching swimming, working from stage 1 (non-swimmers) to stage 8 (pre-competitive swimmers), we offer Swim Club and Life-saving club for advanced swimmers.

When your child moves up to the next stage, they will be entitled to a stage badge and/or certificate for the class just completed and a distance badge/certificate, you can buy these from reception. The badges are a great source of motivation to swimmers.

Our lessons are assessed on an on-going basis.  Teachers will rotate the teaching of each stroke so that all are taught on a regular basis, with skills related to the stage also being covered regularly.  Assessments can be accessed using the Swimphony platform.

Lessons are run Monday to Friday after school and on Saturday morning. Lessons are 30 minutes duration.

Swimming lessons are 25-30 minutes long, with up to 5 minutes allocated for the smooth change over of classes, where possible we ask that children arrive  ready to swim, having long hair tied back, goggles adjusted and visiting the toilet before the start of the lesson, so that there is less disruption the the class.

If you would like a space in our swimming lessons, please email us your child’s name, date of birth, swimming ability, your address and phone number. If your child is a beginner we can find them a space in one of our classes. If they are improvers we can offer them a swim test to assess where they would fit into our scheme.
