Swimming


Our Pool

A wonderful resource for each year group and beyond.
We are so lucky to have our own pool, one of just a handful of schools in the local authority to possess such a fantastic facility. Swimming is an important part of our curriculum and with every child enjoying a weekly swim from Y1 class through to Y6, every child leaves our school a confident and competent swimmer. Swimming is a life skill – once learned never forgotten. As well as being fun it keeps you healthy. It can also save your life!

The SWIMTANK Philosophy
We believe every child should grow to love the water – and that starts with becoming a strong, confident swimmer.
Swimming is a vital life skill, but it also builds self-belief and opens the door to a lifetime of opportunity in and around the water. Our approach is centred on developing correct technique from the very beginning, giving swimmers the confidence to move naturally and efficiently.
We do not rely on armbands or flotation aids, as these can encourage poor body position and limit a child’s ability to develop true water confidence. Instead, we teach swimmers to understand their own buoyancy and control in the water.
The result is what we value most: calm, capable swimmers with beautifully efficient technique that will stay with them for life.
