Learn to Swim

Make a splash with our Learn to Swim programme! The fun and engaging learn to swim classes are led by friendly instructors whose aim is to teach the valuable life skill of swimming through a positive and fun approach. From first-time paddlers to little ones refining their strokes, we provide a safe and supportive environment for every child to learn and grow.

Enrol in Learn to Swim

Learn to swim enrolment (new students)

Enrolment for new Aquatot students is at the end of each term and does not require assessment prior to enrolment. If we have availability in Aquatots classes these can be joined at any point throughout the term. Pre School assessments are required for new students.  

Learn to swim enrolment (existing students)

Roll over enrolments will be done in person the week prior to online bookings opening – these are for students who are assessed and are staying in the same class at same time. The places will be held until Sunday, 7 April. 

Please note: enrolments open at the end of the term once assessments have taken place. Enrolments are confirmed by the Learn to Swim team. Any students enrolled into the wrong level will have to re-enrol into the correct level. You will receive a ‘next level slip’ indicating which level to select. We can also take enrolments in person or over the phone.

Enrolments are not confirmed until payment has been made either upfront or direct debit (download a direct debit form in the related information section at the bottom of this page), this can be done at reception or in the online portal – you risk losing your spot if this is not done and held spaces will have a finite period. Bank transfer is not accepted for payment unless arrangement has been pre-agreed. If an external provider pays for Learn to Swim lessons, please email splashcentre@splashcentre.co.nz to confirm this process. Holiday programmes are upfront payments only.

A little bit of history

The original Splash Centre facility officially opened on 14 March 1989. This facility boasts a competitive 25m pool and at the time a Learn to Swim Pool (now the hydrotherapy pool).

In 2004, to provide customers with the equipment for cardiovascular workout, the ‘Splash Deck’ which is located upstairs in the original facility was added to the wider Splash experience.

On 18 April 2008, the Splash Centre Extension was officially opened! This added a 25m training pool, a learn to swim pool, lazy river, toddlers pool, spas, hydroslides, a sauna and steam room, along with family changing rooms.
