GOswim Program
Developed in partnership with Swimming Australia, GOswim swimming and water safety lessons focus on contemporary, experiential, activity-based aquatic learning experiences. GOswim is a fun and engaging way for kids and adults to learn to swim and be safe in aquatic environments. Suitable for infants from 6 months of age through to adults, GOswim swimming lessons empower students to grow their swimming ability and confidence through a variety of exercises tailored to promote optimal development and competency.
The GOswim Program at Summit Aquatic and Leisure runs for 48 Weeks throughout the season, with a 4-week break over the summer holidays, allowing you to secure your spot all season long and enjoy our exclusive GOswim member benefits.
Students can progress at any time and will be awarded a medal upon level progression.
