Learn to Swim
Do you want your child to learn to swim?
Bridge of Don A.S.C. offers learn to swim lessons:
- with a qualified instructor
- in water of an appropriate depth
- with continuous progress to suit your child's ability
- which are value for money
What skills are the children learning in the swimming classes?
We cater for a wide range of abilities by dividing our learn to swim programme into seven different Junior Teaching (JT) levels (JT1, 1a, 2, 2a, 3, 4 and 5).
If you contact us we'll arrange a suitable lesson for your child to come along for an initial assessment to work out where in our learn to swim programme they would best fit in. Please note that we may ask you to place your child's name on a waiting list until a slot is available in the appropriate class.
At the end of each block of lessons each child in the programme is provided with a Record of Achivement that details their progress towards completing the syllabus for the class they are in.
