My son learnt to swim with the Mckeon swim school. It was a fantastic experience and he remembers it fondly. Each child is assessed individually before starting. This means they are put in the right class. Groups are small and there is a real focus on a proper style being established. This sort of individualised teaching avoids bad habits . There is a big focus on safety and there is one class per term where the kids wear full clothing and practise what to do in different scenarios ,whether it is them in trouble or someone else needs their help. Individual classes are on offer as well as squad groups once your child develops their skills. I have seen the teachers working with kids with special needs and watched amazing bonds develop. Don't just drop your kids off toa lesson , go in and watch , they really develop faster with your encouragement and this is encouraged , quietly of course with a nod and a smile. I have seen kids terrified of water develop into confident swimmers . The annual carnivals are a hoot. You can't put a price on giving your children a skill and a sport that they can continue to do their whole lives . The McKeon family are not only sporting legends ,they run a great business with extremely high standards and provide an amazing service to the Illawarra .

Great place for kids to learn. Good value as there are only a max of 4 in a class.
Staff take care to observe each child. Have regular assessments.
Only downside is the classes are a tad expensive at $14 each.

Approximate cost: $14+
