More Than 1,000 Kids Learning To Swim At Yarborough Each Week
More Than 1,000 Kids Learning To Swim At Yarborough Each Week
The word is out! Yarborough Leisure Centre’s swimming lessons are so great that more than 1,000 children are currently signed up for weekly sessions.
Teaching children to swim is essential from a safety point of view, but that doesn’t mean that it can’t be really good fun. Yarborough’s Jo Worsdall said: “Swimming is a vital part of our mission to persuade the nation to be active, so to reach this milestone is a massive achievement. This is something that I and the rest of the swim team are really proud of.
“Statistics show that 30 per cent of children cannot swim by the time they leave primary school. We don’t think this is good enough and are trying to persuade more and more parents to help their children by enabling them to learn to swim.”
Yarborough Leisure Centre has a full programme of swimming lessons designed for everyone – from parents with their newborn babies – to one-to-one sessions for swimmers of all ages.
“There is no such thing as being too young or too old when it comes to learning to swim,” Jo added.
At Active Nation all children who attend swimming lessons, also get to swim for FREE during casual swim sessions. For more information about our Learn To Swim programme pop in for a chat or give us a call on 01522 873600.
