This week is BUMP UP WEEK! 🎉

Students from Mini Stingers through to Electric Rays will have the opportunity to try out some new skills and experience what they could be learning in the next level up! This is a great chance for our swimmers to challenge themselves, build confidence and get excited about their swimming progression. 🏊‍♀️🏊‍♂️

Our Whip Ray classes will also be moving across to spend some time in the 50m pool!

If you have any questions about your child's progress or whether they may be ready to move up to the next level, please don't hesitate to send us an email. Our team is always happy to help! 💙

🏊‍♀️ WELCOME TO WEEK 4! 🏊‍♂️

We hope everyone is enjoying Term 4 so far! 💦🩵

🎟️ MAKE-UP LESSONS ARE NOW AVAILABLE!

Make-up lessons are now available through the family portal! If your child is going to miss a lesson, please remember to mark their absence at least 2 hours before their class starts to receive a make-up lesson.

💡 Remember: Cancelling your lesson also opens that spot up for another family to use for their make-up lesson. So please mark your child’s absence as soon as you know they won’t be attending.

📱 HOW TO CHECK YOUR MAKE-UPS

If you’re unsure whether you have any available make-up lessons:

1️⃣ Log into your family portal.
2️⃣ Click on each student to view their individual make-up lessons.
3️⃣ To book a make-up, click “Book Makeup”.
4️⃣ The portal will then show you the available classes.

❗ Nothing showing?
If no classes are showing, this means there are currently no available spots for a make-up. Please check again the following day, as availability can change when other families cancel their lessons.

Need a hand? No worries! 😊 If you’re having trouble with your make-up lessons, please contact the pool via email, phone, or come in and visit us at the center.

Thanks everyone for helping us keep the make-up system running smoothly! 💙

🏊‍♀️ WELCOME TO WEEK 3! 🏊‍♂️

We hope everyone is settling into Term 4 and enjoying being back in the water! 💦🩵

💵 REMINDER – $2 SWIM ENTRY
Don’t forget that enrolled children can swim with one accompanying adult for just $2 each under our Learn to Swim entry offer. This is a great opportunity to get some extra time in the water before or after lessons! 🏊‍♂️

🌴 SUPERVISION REMINDER
With our outside splash pools now open, please remember that children still require active parent/guardian supervision at all times.
👶 Children 5 years and under must have a parent/guardian within arm’s reach at all times.
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 If one adult is supervising more than two children under 5, a second parent/guardian is required.

Please also remember that children remain the responsibility of their parent/guardian before and after their swimming lesson.

💡 SWIMMING FACT!
Practice makes progress! Regular time in the water helps children become more comfortable with their swimming skills and gives them more opportunities to repeat and reinforce what they are learning in their lessons. Even a little extra practice can make a big difference! 🌊💪

Have a fantastic Week 3, everyone!

🦺🏊‍♀️ WELCOME TO WEEK 9 — SAFETY WEEK! 🏊‍♂️🦺

It’s Safety Week at Li’l Stingers! 💙 This term, we’ll be focusing on clothed water safety and helping our swimmers understand what it feels like to be in the water wearing everyday clothing.

👕 What to wear:
• Long-sleeve shirt + shorts OR
• T-shirt + long pants

👙 Please make sure swimmers wear their swimwear underneath their clothes.

Don’t worry — students will not spend their entire lesson in their clothes. Clothing will be incorporated into part of the lesson before being removed for the remainder of their swimming activities.

🌊 50m Pool Reminder:
Our Mini Stingers and Whip Rays will spend some time in the 50m pool during their lesson. Please bring extra warm clothes for afterwards to help keep your little swimmers warm! 🥶🧥

This is an important skill for swimmers to practice, as unexpected situations can happen and being able to stay calm and safe in the water while wearing clothes is an important part of water safety.

🦈 Let’s make Safety Week a great one! 💙
