Help us train new swimming teachers this February

Did you know that alongside teaching lessons, many of our Senior Teachers are also qualified to lead a wide range of aquatic courses, including training new swimming teachers for Neptune and many other swim schools? To complete their qualifications our trainee swimming teachers need practice in teaching children during their time on the the course. That's where we need your help!

Swimming lessons with our trainees. 

Our expert team will have spent time training the new swimming teachers so they are ready to teach their first lessons before qualifying as fully fledged swimming teachers! Team Neptune will be on hand to supervise the lessons and evaluate the trainee teachers as part of their course. Each trainee teacher needs 4 children in each of their lessons.

Session details

The sessions will run at Starfish Hydrotherapy Pool, Malmesbury Road, Chippenham. We're looking for children aged 3 and upward to help, and you don't need to swim with Neptune already to take advantage of these extra lessons. If you swim with Neptune please book your child into a class the same level the one they currently swim in, if you don't swim with Neptune then please book your child into our Ducklings, Turtles or Jellyfish classes as detailed below. All children will be in the water without their parents, but there is poolside viewing available.

Ducklings level - aged 3 years to their 5th birthday

Turtles level - aged 5 years plus or Swim England Stage 1 or 2

Jellyfish level - or Swim England stage 3-4

Each lesson will be 30 minutes long and there's no limit to the number of lessons you can book, so simply complete the form (making sure you select Starfish Hydrotherapy Pool as the location) and select as many sessions as you like. Each 30 minute session costs £3 per child.

As well as helping us out the lessons are great extra swimming practice for your child!
