WaveBreakers Swim School
Infant & Early Childhood Aquatics
H²O Xtream offers a wide range of pre-school classes suitable for 6 months - 4 years old and focuses on three main areas:
Water Familiarisation: Aims to develop confidence, relieve anxiety, encourage safe exploration and gain basic breath control.
Basic Skills: We teach balanced movement, flotation, kicking and the basis of the swimming strokes.
Water Safety: Develops parent/caregiver awareness of water safety issues.
| Please feel free to speak to us personally about choosing the right class for your child. Please note: For health reasons, all toddlers under the age of 3 years are required to wear waterproof nappies when in the pool. |
