The England flag is ready for tonight's game... but do you know your water safety flags? 🏴⚽🚩
As we get behind England, let's also take a moment during Drowning Prevention Week to learn the flags that could save a life.

Essential Water Skills are just as important as learning to swim.

Skills like floating, treading water, turning around, swimming to safety, and entering and exiting the pool safely can help children feel more confident and safer in the water.

These are all skills we practise in our lessons, but they're also great to work on when you're swimming as a family or away on holiday. 💙

It's Drowning Prevention Week, and our theme this week is Water Safety. 🛟

Throughout the week, we'll be helping our swimmers build important lifesaving skills and sharing simple tips that can help keep children safe in and around water.

Because learning to swim is about more than strokes...it's about confidence, awareness and staying safe. 💜

Huge congratulations to our two competition winners, Aubrey and Robyn who entered our TV and Movies competition a couple of weeks ago with their drawings and today received their prizes 🥇

Aubrey drew a wonderful drawing of her favourite film “Lion King” with Simba standing tall in all his glory as the king of the jungle 🦁 and Robyn drew a brilliant drawing of her favourite TV Programme “Charlie and Lola” with both characters looking cheeky and ready to have lots of fun which is something swim! is all about 👦🏼👱🏻‍♀️

Well done both and thank you everyone else for entering. We will be running more competitions in the future so keep your eyes out to get your little ones involved in all the fun we have at swim! Castleford 💙

Meet Georgia B! 👋🏻

With over 5 years of experience working in a special educational needs setting, Georgia brings that valuable experience to swim! Castleford with her inclusive, supportive lessons catering for all her swimmers needs during her Saturday morning lessons.

One of Georgia’s fun facts is she is fully trained in British Sign Language, a valuable life skill🫶🏻

Georgia also has a huge passion for travelling the world which has taken her to many countries including Thailand where she went out there to volunteer at a British School to support the local children learn.🌍

When Georgia’s not working either in the pool or a school she’s not far from water just like her favourite swim theme, Sea Creatures. Georgia loves to go paddle boarding and enjoy every second she can in the water however her favourite animal being a monkey means she would do more swinging from the trees than swimming in the water. 🐒

Meet the Team 👋🏻

Megan has been a teacher at Swim! Castleford for just short of two years now and is one of our longest standing teachers who regularly teaches on our Sunday Afternoons.

Her favourite theme is this weeks Theme of the Week which is Sea Creatures 🐠🐬This is due to her love for snorkeling and all things under the water. However not all things under the water like Megan sadly when on holiday in Thailand she was stung by a jellyfish requiring first aid treatment by the lifeguard 🏖️

Did you know, Megan, is also a keen footballer and regularly plays for her Sunday morning all girls team as a left winger! ⚽️

The small things that make a BIG difference to our swimmers’ safety, confidence, hygiene and overall experience in the pool. 💙

🧢 Swimming Hats
All swimmers are required to wear an official swim! swimming hat during lessons. Our hats are colour coded to help teachers quickly identify ability groups, improve pool hygiene and motivate swimmers as they progress through the programme and achieve their next colour! If you need a hat, please speak to our reception team who will be happy to help.

👣 Blue Shoe Cover Policy
Please continue to wear blue shoe covers in all changing rooms, viewing areas and poolside spaces. This helps us keep our centre clean, hygienic and safe for all swimmers.

🧺 Changing Room Facilities
To help provide a fast, safe and efficient changing room experience for everyone, we kindly ask all families to avoid leaving belongings inside changing cubicles and instead use the lockers provided. This helps keep the changing areas tidy while ensuring swimmers’ belongings remain safe and secure. You can arrive “swim ready” by wearing costumes, trunks or swim shorts underneath their onesies/clothing too!

🚿 Pre-Swim Showers
A quick shower before lessons helps improve water quality and hygiene standards for everyone using the pool.

💪 Warm Up Video
Before lessons begin, our warm up video helps activate muscles, energise swimmers and get bodies ready for a fantastic lesson ahead!

🛟 Arm discs
For our younger swimmers in Swim 1 and Swim 2, armbands are an important part of keeping children safe, confident and happy in the water while they learn.

Thank you to parents and carers for all your help and support 🏊✨
