Childrens Swimming Lessons

Nikki333

Hi All,

I am looking to get swimming lessons in Naas over the summer for my two children (6 & 8yo) and was wondering if I could get recommendations on where to go.

Can anyone recommend a good teacher? I read a review about the Osprey saying pool wasn't the cleanest. Someone else said to me to consider a pool with a shallow end that gradually gets deeper which gives non swimmers a bit of confidence.

Would really appreciate any advice.

Thank you.

Gym Plus in Monread run kids classes for all levels. Our twins are younger than your two, and are doing well in the level 1 classes.

All the pools in Naas are fine. The osprey is just slightly shorter than the rest at about 19m

The only pool that gets deeper is k-leisure. The others are standard 1.2m gym pools.

Not sure how the summer goes but once term time starts it's a good idea to put your names down for all 3 pools. The lessons at reasonable times on reasonable days are generally booked out so you'll go on a waiting list. Accept the first offer when your time comes.

Teacher quality will vary greatly at each place, you might be lucky or unlucky.
