Play it safe by the water always swim between the flags 🏊

Stay safe everyone!! What crazy weather we have had in last 24hrs with more rain expected. Around 92mm since 9am yesterday, flooding, power outages, damage to roads and houses.

Remember - if its Flooded Forget It!!!

Stay away from flood waters you do not know what has happened to the roads underneath!!! Don't take the risk!

Keep dry and hopefully we can get back to some sunshine soon

Shallow water play and exploration is fantastic to build children’s confidence and independence in the water. Remember even shallow water play required ACTIVE ADULT SUPERVISION. Children will enjoy self submerging underwater. Children should learn to recover independently to a standing position.

SHARE 🐠 Why do we wear a T-Shirt in the pool. Wearing a loose t-shirt in the water will give the baby something to grip and hold on to. Here baby can support their own body weight, learn buoyancy and practice self submersions and recoveries. This simple skill helps to teach baby a respect for the water. If they strike out on their own they must learn to independently recover either on a parents t-shirt, ledge or side of the pool. If the caregiver catches or picks up the child they can become over confident. Every time your child swims to you provide gentle assistance, reassurance and supervision while they learn independent recoveries. This very simple tool is fantastic for encouraging independence and teaching children their capabilities and limitations.

Hello parents! We hope you all had a wonderful Christmas 🎅 Firstly we would like to thank Ash for entrusting us with the privilege of taking on the Sloan swim school.

We are excited to share that we are the new owners.
Our focus is on providing a safe and enjoyable environment for your kids to learn and have fun in the water. We look forward to getting to know each of you and ensuring a positive experience for your children's swimming journey. We have over 25 years experience in the aquatic industry, what can we say teaching kids the important message of water safety and learning to swim is our passion. Please excuse our photo below as it the only one we could find of us out of the water, this photo was taken on our swim in your pjs day at our swim school in Hidden Valley.
We wish you all a safe and happy new year, we will see you back in the water soon Laura and Andrea

Christmas Day traditionally sees many families heading to the coast and while beaches are expected to be inundated during the holidays the message from Surf Life Saving Australia is simple – swim only at patrolled beaches, between the red and yellow flags Wishing all our beautiful swim families a wonderful and safe Christmas looking forward to meeting you all in the new year Laura and Andrea

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT:

It is with mixed emotions we announce that from today Sloan Swim School will be under NEW OWNERSHIP.
The very experienced new owners will introduce themselves in the near future but for now I would like to take this opportunity to thank the many families that have supported our small business over the past 10 years.
To think we started this swim school with four swimmers at a pool at my parent in laws home, to currently handing over the reigns to a swim school with three locations that provide infant swimming, learn to swim, adult progression and schools programs galore! What a wild ride it has been!

If you are current swimmers with Sloan, rest easy! Classes will resume as usual in the new year. Your familiar teachers (except myself) will be continuing. Booking and term information will be circulated in due course.

Thank you again for your incredible support, have a wonderful Christmas and New Year!
