The Learner Pool
-
The learner pool is ideal for children developing confidence in the water
-
The pool is 9m long
-
Our learner pool is maintained at 32°C which is perfect for young children who are more sensitive to lower temperatures
-
The learner pool gradually deepens to 0.9m at the deepest

We use both our pools for swimming lessons, to ensure this doesn't clash with the time you wish to swim please check our timetables.
Why not try our Lane Swims in the mornings, with three lane speeds to suit all abilities and directed swimming to prevent hold ups and collisions. How about a relaxing swim to unwind after work during our adult swim in the evenings?
For the kids!
-
Juniors are welcomed to swim and over 8's who are strong swimmers are permitted to swim on their own
-
'Junior swimming' = the price for an hour of peace and quiet for mums and dads during weekend fun sessions
Please check the timetable as some sessions are not suitable for Juniors. We also offer swimming lessons for all ages and abilities. Juniors over 13 may use our gym (subject to an assessment with an instructor).
