I can highly recommend Julie's swim school :)

It is with much sadness that I have to announce that, as of Friday 8th December, Jackystoneswimming will cease to run swimming lessons at Foxhills. If anyone knows of another pool that is available to hire for lessons please do let me know. I shall keep this FB page open for the time being. The teachers and I have had many pleasurable years of teaching at Foxhills and on behalf of them all we wish you a very happy Christmas and keeeeep swimming :)

sadly i have to cancel next week's synchro camp due to lack of bookings

A second synchro camp is being held on Tues 29 - Thurs 31 Aug 4.30 to 6.15pm. To join the fun email jackystoneswimming@gmail.com

See the girls having lots of fun at our first synchro camp this summer

I often get asked how long will it take my child to learn to swim. This blog sums up very nicely exactly what I would reply. Please do read it. http://www.bluewaveswim.co.uk/blog/how-long-will-it-take-to-learn-swimming

so important for children & adults to learn about water safety as well as how to help someone who is in difficulty without putting themselves at risk
