Acceler8 Your Swimming at Blacktown Leisure Centre, Stanhope!

Thursday, December 4, 2008

Don't have time to fit learn-to-swim classes in during the school term? Then Blacktown Leisure Centre, Stanhope intensive learn-to-swim program 'Acceler8' is for you!

'Acceler8' is an intensive program that runs during the school holidays for children aged between 6 and 12 years. The programs focus is on teaching basic swimming skills and increasing competence in all four strokes, with an overall aim to produce strong and safe swimmers.

Swimming is a skill for life and a great form of exercise that can help to keep you fit and toned. Most importantly, knowing how to swim greatly reduces the risk of drowning. Unfortunately, many child drownings still occur every year and many are preventable if kids are taught how to swim.

Acceler8 will run during the Summer School Holidays from Monday, January 12, 2009 until Friday, January 23, 2009 (excluding Public Holidays). Bookings are essential by simply completing an enrolment form at the Centre or by calling 9421 26000.

For more information call 9421 2600. Alternatively, see the Swim School Team between 9am and noon or 4pm until 7pm weekdays.

Accerler8 is conducted by AUSTSWIM Accredited Instructors.
