Lessons

A class for every stage

Classes are grouped by ability, not just age, so no one is stuck waiting for the rest of the group.

Babies and toddlers

Water confidence classes for six months to three years, with a parent in the pool. Songs, floating and getting comfortable with your face under water.

Learn to swim

Stroke technique for preschool and school-age kids, in small classes grouped by ability. Progress is tracked and shared each term.

Squad and stroke correction

For strong swimmers wanting to go faster or join a club squad. Technical coaching on all four strokes, twice a week.

The indoor pool
The school

One pool, twenty years of teaching

Sugarloaf Swim School has run out of the same indoor pool in Fitzroy since 2004. Head instructor Karen Shaw trained every instructor currently on staff.

We keep the same instructor with the same class each term, so your child is not relearning a new teacher's style every few weeks.

Term fees

Lessons are booked by the term, once a week, with your spot held from term to term unless you tell us otherwise.

Term fees from $195

Ten-week terms. A one-off casual lesson is $28 where space allows.
