Swimming Lessons

General

Highbury Pool runs swimming lessons year round. Lessons are mostly conducted in the small pool, which is only 0.8 metres deep making it ideal for swimming lessons. The water is kept at 30 degrees. There is also a main pool where some of the later stages are taught.

All of our swimming teachers hold an ASA Level 2 swimming instructor qualification, RLSS Pool Lifeguarding Qualification and attend regular training.

Lesson Times

Adult lessons run Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Sunday evenings, as well as Tuesday and Thursday mornings.

All lessons are 25 minutes.
