Shapland Swim School Stretton

Did you know this Friday fun fact?

Did you know floating is one of the most important water safety skills a child can learn?

If a child ever finds themselves in trouble in the water, being able to roll onto their back and float can help them stay calm, keep breathing easily and wait for help.

It’s a simple skill, but in an emergency it can make all the difference.

No red eyes. No dry skin. No shivering after lessons 💧

Our toasty 32°C Magna Mineral pools are designed to create a calm, comfortable experience for every child in the water. The mineral water is gentle on eyes, skin and hair, without the harsh feel of a typical chlorine pool.

For children with sensitive skin or little ones still building confidence in the water, it can make such a difference. The water feels softer, the pools stay beautifully clear and the warm temperature helps children relax and enjoy their lessons.

It’s all part of creating a swimming experience that feels comfortable from the moment you walk in 💙

Come and feel the Shapland difference.

Today we pause to remember and reflect on ANZAC Day.

Lest we forget 🌺

We’ll be closed tomorrow, April 25 for ANZAC Day.
Lest we forget.
We look forward to seeing everyone back at lessons soon 💙

We’ll be taking a short break over Easter 🐰
Our pool with be closed from Friday 3 April to Monday 6 April.

Enjoy the long weekend, stay safe around the water and we’ll see you back for lessons from Tuesday!

Consistency is the secret sauce to learning how to swim! The more often swimmers dive in, the quicker they build confidence, strength and solid technique.

We always recommend taking more than one class a week, here’s why:

🪼 Master skills quicker through regular, focused practice
🪼 Build muscle memory faster
🪼 Boost water confidence and overcome fears faster

Think floaties keep your children safe? Think again! 🚫

While they might seem helpful, floaties create a false sense of security and can teach unsafe swimming habits. Always opt for supervision and proper swim lessons instead!

With just three children per class, our swimmers really get to know their teacher. That trust makes lessons feel calmer, happier and safer 🤍

Swimming really does save lives and build brains!
If you’re thinking about giving your child a great head start, we’d love to welcome you at Shapland Stretton. Let’s get them feeling confident in the pool and ready for school too 🧠
