Swim City Learn to Swim Programmes
SWIM CITY runs a Learn to Swim Programme from six months of age through to older adults. If you want to learn to swim, receive stroke correction or be informed on important aspects of safety in and around the water, then you have come to the right place.
Lessons at Huia Pool
Please re-book for term 3 lessons on your first lesson back at Huia Pool (reopens on 20 June after facility maintenance).
Lessons at Huia Pool for the week 2-5 June were cancelled and credits will be transferred on client's account. Lessons will resume on 20th June, term 2 dates will be re-scheduled to end on 5th July.
Due to the three weeks without lessons, to assess on the first day back in the water would not be a fair and accurate assessment of the children's capabilities. They have also only had the consistency of a five week learning term, despite having two lessons at the end of the maintenance period.
So, to this end there will be no assessments as such, children will stay in their present classes for Term 3. Please ensure you rebook your child on the day of their lesson, when we recommence on the week beginning Saturday 20 June. Your failure to rebook your child could result in them missing out on their slot in our LTS program.
WE WILL ONLY TAKE BOOKINGS WITH PAYMENT - NO EXCEPTIONS
We like to thank you for your patience and understanding during this time. For further information, please contact SwimCity office on tel: 567 0043
Huia Pool Closed 2 - 19 June (inclusive)
Due to a water main rupture at Hutt City’s Huia Pool has resulted in the pool being closed to the public. The main ruptured on Monday (2 June) night and resulted in water filling in the Learners Pool plant room. The water was pumped out by the fire service and the impact of the rupture on the pool machinery has been assessed.
The pool is scheduled to be closed from 22 June to 3 July for routine maintenance. To minimise disruption to pool users, this is now brought forward so the maintenance and any repairs required due to the burst water main can be undertaken together. Huia Pool is scheduled to reopen on Saturday 20 June.
