CUSTOMER FEEDBACK

“Lorraine has been an amazing teacher. Being in the water and supporting Leo has been incredible. He has come such a long way in such a short amount of time. She makes the lessons fun and he absolutely loves coming swimming!”

At Frogs & Friends Swimming School, creating fun, supportive lessons where children can build confidence and enjoy learning is so important to us

We’re incredibly proud of Leo’s progress and so grateful for such lovely feedback about Lorraine. Seeing swimmers excited to come to lessons each week is the best feeling

A huge well done to Leo — keep up the amazing work!

✅ Help protect hair from chlorine
✅ Reduce loose hair in the pool

💦 Little wins become BIG confidence 💦

There’s nothing better than seeing a child go from holding tightly onto the side… to swimming proudly across the pool with a huge smile 😊

At Frogs & Friends, we focus on building confidence first because confident children become happy swimmers

Every splash, kick, and bubble is progress!

Did you know we offer both Parent & Child and Pre-School swimming lessons at Frogs & Friends? 🐸

Introducing children to the water from a young age is such an important life skill. Our lessons help little ones build water confidence, develop coordination, and learn important safety skills all while having lots of fun along the way.

Our Parent & Child classes are a lovely way to bond with your baby or toddler in the water, with songs, games, and gentle swimming activities designed to make learning fun and relaxed.

As children grow, our Pre-School lessons help build independence and confidence, giving them a fantastic foundation before they move into school-age swimming lessons.

There’s nothing better than seeing little swimmers smiling, splashing, and growing in confidence every week .

A little reminder for all our swim parents 🐸

You can keep track of your child’s progress anytime through the Frogz app, where you’ll be able to see the skills they’re working on and when they move up to the next level

When your swimmer passes a level, you can also purchase their badge or print off a certificate to celebrate their achievement

We love seeing how proud the children are when they reach a new stage in their swimming journey

From first splashes to national competitions… THAT is the Frogs & Friends journey

At Frogs & Friends Swimming School, we’re so proud that our swimmers can start with us as babies in parent & child lessons and continue all the way through to competitive swimming at local, county, regional, and even national level

We are more than just a swim school.
We provide a complete swimming pathway 🐸➡️🏅

From:
💦 Building water confidence
💦 Learning life-saving skills
💦 Developing technique and fitness
💦 Joining squads and competitions
💦 Achieving personal goals and lifelong friendships

Seeing swimmers grow in confidence both in and out of the pool is what makes everything worthwhile

This weekend, we want to wish the VERY BEST of luck to all our Ascot Royals swimmers competing at the Basingstoke Summer Sizzler

All the early mornings, tough training sessions, determination, and hard work are leading to moments like these and we couldn’t be prouder of every single swimmer.

We have no doubt there will be:
⭐ PBs smashed
⭐ Huge smiles
⭐ Amazing team spirit
⭐ And hopefully some County Championship qualification times too 👏

Go out there, race hard, support each other, and most importantly… enjoy every moment 🐸🥇
