Swimming and water safety teacher
Kick and Paddle Swim School

About Kick and Paddle:

Our program has been developed around both fun and safety.

We ensure that our students can get themselves to safety, with a focus on water awareness, personal safety and mobility. Due to the small and private nature of our swim school, our team is able to focus on each child as an individual, fostering a trusting relationship and helping students build their confidence, which in turn accelerates their swimming development.

Small class sizes allow team members to develop a personal relationship with both children and parents. We strive to provide the best learn-to-swim environment in Australia: there are a maximum of two classes at the same time in a small, private, indoor facility. This creates the ideal learning environment for young children.

We offer three types of programs over a range of classes. The first is the Parent and Child Program, followed by the Teacher and Child Program and finally our Adult Learn to Swim Program.
