It is also not too far from Bermondsey.<\/p>\n

The swimming pool is an excellent size for adult and children’s swimming lessons being 15 metres in length. This makes it great for teaching early swimming skills, through to more advanced swimming stroke technique.<\/p>\n

Compared to busy public pools, a private pool like this really helps student’s concentration, for them to grow in confidence and to feel safe with their teacher and fellow swimmers.

Some suggestions for after your lesson<\/h2>\n
\n
\n
We encourage our pupils and parents to spend time with each other outside of lessons. There are a number of cafes and parks in the vicinity of all of our pools. So why not suggest to anyone else at the lesson to grab a coffee or visit the local playground.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
We are looking to build partnerships with local businesses<\/a> to help benefit the school. Please do contact the office with any recommendations of places to go after class or services that might be useful to school members.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
