Welcome to
Penguins Palace !
What do we do?
We deliver engaging swimming lessons for children as young as three years old. Our qualified teachers take great pride in the balance of good technique and good fun. We write and construct our own lesson plans, and cater them to the individual needs of each swimmer! In addition to teaching the various swimming strokes, we assist our little penguins in building their independent strength and confidence in the water.
All lessons are as engaging as they are educational, and we’ve got a great range of penguin perks when you decide to swim with us:
Size Matters.
We keep our classes small, so each student receives more attention in the water, and most importantly, more time to swim! Class capacity is capped at just four swimmers, half of what you’re likely to find anywhere else.
Hello?
Chasing teachers for feedback is the worst! So we decided to take the initiative and chase the parents instead. All of our little penguins are assessed termly, with checklists that illustrate just how much they’ve progressed. We believe in direct and clear communication, so we also offer an in-depth review at the end of each school term.
Dream Team!
Here at the palace, we take great pride in our team of Penguin Professionals. We are a highly committed staff, with ASA and STA Qualifications to back it up. All of our instructors have ample years of experience, transforming the lives of over 2,000 students! Every week without fail, the team is dedicated to guiding the little ones through the wondrous world of water.
Points & Prizes
Children love presents and prizes, so we’ve worked extremely hard on creating a currency they’ll quickly grow to learn and love. All of our penguins are awarded points during their lessons, for achievements such as good attendance, lap times and distance awards. This system has proven to be a great way of positively reinforcing a healthy attitude for swimming, and pushes our penguins to the best of their ability week after week. How’s that for breaking the ice?
How do I sign up?
