School Holiday Intensive Swimming Program

Day 1

On the first day of our school holiday swimming lessons, we greet all families, both new and familiar, and welcome them to Fast Track. If you’re new to Kingswim, we’ll assess your child to identify the level that is best for their needs. At Kingswim, these levels are known as K-levels.

Levels K1 – K4 are for children who are new to swimming, while levels K5 – K8 are for those who know the basics and are ready to refine their skills. Levels K9 – K11 are our advanced levels designed to help children become experts in the water.

Children who are already in the Kingswim program will placed in their current K-level for the Fast Track program. Our teachers will help them focus on the core skills that are needed to complete their current K-level.

Day 2

Day 2 continues to focus on learning and practising the swimming skills within your child’s current K-level. This is a great opportunity for new families to learn the milestones for their child’s K-level. Our milestones vary in each level, so your child could work on anything from push glides to independent freestyle or the basic butterfly!

For those who are already in our program, day 2 is an opportunity to reinforce the milestones they’re working on and improve skills in a specific area of focus. We know that kids need ongoing encouragement, so we’re on hand to support them through sticking points and technique gaps. Our friendly teachers are always there to help give them a little extra confidence.

Day 3

On day 3, we give children the chance to practise their assessment tasks. This is a great way to help them work towards the next K-level with the support of our supervisors, who will be on hand to review each child. We ensure that everyone is given close attention so that we can provide tailored and constructive feedback to parents.

We also introduce children to the skills and techniques they will learn in the next level. This helps them work towards a whole new set of skills and prepares them for their regular lessons. Some children will even move to the next level if they are identified as being ready through the Fast Track program.

Day 4

For the last day of Fast Track, we place emphasis on water safety, survival and rescue skills. We know that the number one reason parents enrol their child in swimming lessons is to be safer in and around water, so this is an important inclusion in our Fast Track program.

Your child will have the opportunity to practise essential water safety swimming techniques while learning important tips to stay safe.

Taking part in intensive swimming lessons is a huge achievement with lots of important skills to be learnt throughout the program. To celebrate, we give all children a Fast Track certificate at the end of the program to recognise their participation.

Fast Track school holiday swimming lessons run for the same duration of regular lessons, being:

1. 30 minutes for K1- K9
2. 45 minutes for K10
3. 1 hour for K11
