Kingsmead – Venue Guidance

Welcome to Hayley’s Swimming School; below you will find the information you will need when you bring your children for their swimming lessons.

Appropriate swimwear

Please ensure that children are wearing appropriate swimwear.  Girls should wear swimming costumes rather than bikinis and boys should wear swimming trunks or tight shorts (the baggy ones just make it harder for them to move through the water).  Any long hair tied back and jewellery and watches removed.

Payment

Payment is to be made by DD.  We also accept cash (Please put your fees into an envelope and write your child’s name, day, and time of lesson) or to make a payment using your online banking facility, please use the following details…

Sort code:  09-01-28

Account number:  54200934

Please remember to use your child’s initial and surname as your reference e.g. for Jane Smith use “JSMITH”.

Finding us and parking

Please do not park in the pool car park (it is for residents only and is in our contract with the pool that our customers do not use it).  There is plenty of parking on the main road (Birkenhead Road).

Changing rooms

Please arrive 10 minutes before your first lesson to allow for changing and finding your way around the building. 

There are separate boys and girls changing rooms.  Children over 8 must change in the appropriate changing room; children under 8 may use the changing room appropriate to their parent if they need help changing. For example: a five year old boy would use the girls changing room if he was with his mother.

Please remove your shoes before entering the changing rooms and leave them by the bench.  *Outdoor shoes are not permitted on poolside/changing rooms* 

The changing rooms lead onto the poolside; please ensure that children stay with you and do not enter the water until their teacher has called them for their lesson.  If you have any rubbish, please use the bins provided. 

Please note:  Shoes must be removed before entering the poolside area.

Poolside

There is seating on the poolside for you to watch your child having their lesson. 

Please do not leave the vicinity whilst your child is having their lesson. 

Lessons

Each lesson is 30 minutes long.

We provide all the equipment your child will need. We use back floats, arm discs and noodles.

Thanks,

Hayley
