Otters Swim School

Otters Swim School Otters Swim School offers swimming lessons for children. The experienced teaching team is made up of Alison King, Karen White, Michelle Harris and Jo Brigley.

We are a friendly swim school holding lessons at Stonar School near Melksham and at the Azimghur Barracks in Colerne. We also offer intensive lessons during all the school half terms and holidays and we offer 1:1 lessons too. These intensive and individual lessons are great at speeding up the Childs progress with their swimming skills and their confidence around water. All experienced Level 2 swim

teachers. We strive to provide the safest environment for your children to become confident in the water and learn to enjoy swimming, learning all the skills required including life saving and personal survial. Our family approach allows parents to watch poolside, encouraging their children every step of the way! We teach children from 3yrs and will take all abilities from non swimmers through to intermediate and advanced. Each child will have the appropriate time spent on them as we want every child to improve to the best of their ability. We will move them up through the different levels when we feel they are ready and once a term we will do distance test so the children can achieve a badge and certificate. Members of ASA and ISTC, Institute of Swimming - As members of these organisations you can rest assured that our methods and practices adhere to the nationally recognised standards ensuring the safety of all those involved at Otters Swim School and, of course, the competence of those involved with teaching your children.

**"Grace is 3 years and 7 months old and started swimming lessons just after her second birthday. After a week of practising in her giant paddle pool with her armbands on, simply building up her confidence, alongside the regular lessons she attends every Friday, it's amazing to see what can be achieved. We couldn't be prouder of her progress!"**

It's hot out there! Please share our lifesaving advice to help us keep people safe πŸ“’

Some areas of the UK are exceeding 30Β°C today. With many families enjoying the sun this half term, we are asking you to remember one thing if you're by the water:

- Tilt your head back with your ears submerged
- Relax and try to breathe normally
- Move your hands and legs to help you stay afloat
- It’s OK if your legs sink, we all float differently
- Once your breathing is under control, call for help or swim to safety.

Enjoy and stay safe πŸ₯΅
