YES - WE ARE OPEN AGAIN

Swim Stars Swim School Pty Ltd has been

proudly teaching the children of Wyndham to swim since 2007

Did someone mention COVIDsafe swimming?

The safety of our childen, adults and instructors is our top priority.

We have invested heavily to ensure we have gone above and beyond the Governments requirements to reopen safely. We also have a comprehensive COVIDsafe plan in place to ensure the best possible care for everyone.

1. The most important thing is if you or your child are unwell, do not attend the pool for your lesson, follow the Government guidelines and get tested, then self-isolate.

2. All our staff will be doing exactly what we expect our customers to do, hand santiser, temprature checked, QR health declaration for contract tracing and they will be wearing clear face shields while teaching to further enhance the safety for everyone in the pool.

3. Upon arrival, you will all need to use the hand sanitising station provided.

4. Those over 18 year old, you will also need to use our automatic temperatue readers.

5. Special contract tracing QR codes will be displayed for those over 18 years old, you use these with the camera on your smart phone and complete the health declaration. If you do not have a smart phone then you need to manually register with the reception staff. All information is securely stored in line with Government regulations and privacy laws to ensure it is safe. Your details will never be sold or traded to a thrid party.

6. Class times have been reduced to 25 minutes in length for the time being, this will allow time for minimal person in the building during change over of classes, keeping us all safe.

7. We ask that only one adult accompany swimmers. Children should arrive ready to swim. Changerooms at this stage will only be available for use of the toilets or a quick change if absolutely needed.

8. When using baby change tables, please a use disposable change mat or a towel before laying your child down.

9. If spectating numbers reach our limit, we may request the adult supervising the child observe through the window from outside (weather permitting) or wait in your car.

YOU MUST HOWEVER REMAIN ON SITE AT ALL TIMES SHOULD YOU BE NEEDED.

10. Social distancing and face masks are required both inside and outside the swim school. If you are exempt from wearing a mask, please let us know.

The pool itself is a natural sanitiser, chlorine has been shown to kill the COVID-19 virus, on top of this our pool is Mineral Water with UV light sanitation, this combination is the most effective protection available.

Constant cleaning with hospital grade disenfectant will be occurring, before, during and after lessons.

All equipmnt used during classes is constantly sanitised to ensure the safety of children and staff.

Of course, this is all new to everyone, including our staff.

We ask for your patience and cooperation while we work through this together.

Our staff are so excited to be welcoming the children back to swimming lessons, it has been a long hard road for everyone and with summer fast approaching, swiiming lessons now are more important than ever.

If you have any questions about our COVIDsafe plan or booking your child into lessons, please do not hesitate to contact us at anytime to discuss these.

OUR CLASSES

You may have noticed some swim schools in the area are becoming a little like light poles, one on nearly every corner and all of them doing exactly the same thing!

Your child's swimming lessons are more important than the one size fits all approach.

Our classes run to a proven program that caters for children of all abilities,

they are constructed to be flexible to meet their individual needs.

Other swim schools insist their business owners all follow the same set program, no matter what level your child is at or what ability they are able to display to the instructor. If the instructors don't follow the set in stone program, they actually get into trouble!

If you want to judge how good a swim school is, ask to speak to the owner, then ask them how long they have been in business and how many years THEY have been teaching children to learn to swim. The answers may surprise you!
