LEARN TO SWIM

At Haringey Aquatics we run two Learn to Swim Programmes under the direction of our experienced and qualified team of Swim England-accredited teachers:

  • Our curriculum at the Dukes Aldridge Academy in Northumberland Park covers Stages 1-7 of the Swim England Learn to Swim Framework and provides the first steps for swimmers embarking on the exciting journey into the world of aquatics. Stages 1 – 7 of the framework equips swimmers with the skills to be confident, competent and safe in the water, as well as developing basic techniques across a range of strokes. Children must be at least four years old.

 

  • Our programme at the Mallinson Sports Centre in Highgate is for children who have working towards Stages 6 and 7 of the Swim England Learn to Swim Framework. Here children learn how to prepare for exercise; develop efficient techniques for all four strokes; practise surface dives, and work to improve streamlining, breathing, co-ordination and knowledge of water safety. Stage 7 lessons will also build stamina and further improve diving skills. Children must have completed Stage 5.
