I am sorry we haven't been able to put out any detail until now about the summer swim school. We have been working hard with our parent and baby teachers to devise a summer plan for our younger swimmers. Unfortunately, due to limited teacher availability we can only offer the following classes

Starfish Improvers (16 Months to 3 Years)- Saturday 11.30am  @ Starfish Hydrotherapy Pool

We are aware that a number of our swimmers will now need to move up due to their age, so please select their current age group and not the old class they were in.

For swimmers who have now turned 3 but at the start of lockdown were in the Starfish Improvers class, we will be offering a Starfish Improvers+ class. This class is designed for swimmers 3 years and older and will act as a transitional class from Starfish Improvers to Ducklings. Adults will be asked to bring their swimming kit and get in with their children and slowly, over the 5 weeks phase themselves out of the pool so the children are in the pool with just the swimming teacher. We will be offering 2 of these classes:

If you wish to book onto any of these classes, please use the link below, the lessons will be offered on a first come first served basis. We have extremely limited availability for these sessions. 

Due to regulations surrounding baby swimming from our governing bodies, lessons will be run in a very different fashion with limited equipment or songs. Full details will follow soon once we have liaised with our teachers. 

The Summer swim school will run for 5 week from the Monday 3rd August to the Sunday 5th September and will give swimmers the ability to have a weekly swimming lesson just like during normal term time. 

Starfish Beginner and Improvers will have 8 swimmers in the class and Starfish Improvers+ will have 4 swimmers in the class. The Summer Swim School will only be available to current swimmers who paid their April DD as Normal. These are purely for existing customers only. We will be offering our popular Crash Courses for new swimmers, further details of these sessions will be released shortly. 

Lessons will run for 25 minutes with 5 min change over time to allow swimmers to exit the pool and social distance. All swimmers will be asked to come beach ready and further details over what this means will be sent out to swimmers on the Summer swim school.

The Summer swim school will run out of the following venues 

• Starfish Hydrotherapy Pool, Chippenham;

Unfortunately the reduction of the class numbers and the additional costs that we must implement to bring lessons back for the summer has meant we have had to increase our fees. However we have tried to keep these fees as low as we can. We are also aware that swimmers paid their April DD, as you will see below, we have taken this into account in our fees for the summer swim school. 

A full break down can be found below:

Places will be offered on a first come first served basis and due to the reduced numbers there are only very limited places on the summer swim school program. All swimmers will get a booking confirmation from Swimphony through their members hub to confirm the space. If we are unable to offer you a space, we will email you to let you know the class is full and we will try to offer a different day/time. 

No further booking swill be taken from 5.00pm on Friday 31st July

I want to personally thank all our customers for their support of the last few months and we can't wait to see you all back in the pool soon. There will be a lot more information coming out about rules with regards to the summer swim school over the next few weeks, so please look out for it in your email and via text message.
