The Aqua Jetty Swim School is aligned with the Royal Life Saving WA "Swim and Survive" program.
The program caters for all ages from infants (six months and over) to school-aged students and adults, encouraging water safety awareness and swim technique development.
All swim instructors are Austswim accredited and have current first aid and CPR qualifications.
Baby classes are held in the indoor hydrotherapy pool with parents accompanying their child in the water; an ideal location for infants to enjoy the comfortable temperature and allowing greater focus on the lesson.
The scope of lessons allows children to develop at their own pace assisted by swim instructors. Each swimming level has a number of assessment outcomes, which when achieved allows the child to progress to the next stage.
All stages are held in specific pools based on the outcomes of each stage. Generally, as participants progress to the more advanced stages they are required to swim greater distances, moving from the leisure pool to the 25m indoor lap pool and then onto the 50m outdoor competition pool.
All classes operate for 30 minutes with squad training extending out to 45 minutes. Class sizes are kept small to provide a high teacher to student ratio.
The Aqua Jetty offers one-on-one and small group (2-3) inclusion swimming lessons.

Junior Lifeguard program
The Aqua Jetty’s Junior Lifeguard programs are an aquatic alternative for kids aged 8-15 years who don’t want the structure of swimming lessons.
All performances are assessed on an individual basis and awards are given in a number of areas such as leadership and teamwork, as well as lifesaving knowledge.
The cost is $14.20 per week.
The next Junior Lifeguard program starts on Tuesday 2 February. This is a 10-week program running on Tuesdays from 4.30pm- 5.30pm. For more information and to see if your child is eligible to participate, contact the Swim School on 9591 0881.
