-
$22 per lesson (paid fortnightly, via the Goodlife Swim School app)
The first payment is made upon booking and thereafter fortnightly on a Monday.
-
Lessons can be cancelled through the Goodlife Swim School app up to four weeks before the scheduled lesson.
If your child is unable to attend a lesson, you must cancel the booking through the app at least 2 hours before the lesson start time to receive a make-up voucher. Make-up vouchers are not issued for lessons that are missed or cancelled with less than 2 hours' notice.
Cancelling Early Gives You More Time to Use Your Voucher
Your make-up voucher will be available to use from the date it is issued and will expire four weeks after the original scheduled lesson date.
This means the earlier you cancel, the longer you have to use your make-up voucher.
For example:
Cancel 4 weeks before your lesson: Your voucher is available immediately and remains valid until 4 weeks after the original lesson date, giving you up to 8 weeks to use your voucher.
We encourage families to cancel as early as possible when they know their child will be unable to attend. This gives you the greatest flexibility to book a suitable make-up lesson.
We cannot guarantee times will always be available to suit your needs. In this instance email us at swimschool@goodlife.org.au
-
All children under the age of three years are required to wear a properly fitted swim nappy for the duration of the swimming lesson. The cost of having to clean the pool if an accident occurs is significant and will also cause all lessons that day to be cancelled. Only once the child is completely toilet trained are they exempt from this policy.
We reserve the right for our instructors to refuse inclusion of your child into the pool without appropriate swim nappy or if they are wearing a soiled swim nappy.
All children from Level 3 up are encouraged to wear goggles and a swim cap. This helps to prevent sore eyes from chlorine and keeps their hair out of their eyes.
All children perform activities without goggles in their class to help develop water confidence in situations where they may not have goggles.
Nappies, goggles and caps are all sold at the front counter for your convenience.
-
We recognise the importance of all year-round swimming not only for fitness and swimming progression but for the fact it saves lives.
There is a closure over the Christmas/New Year celebratory period for Learn to Swim. If you are going away there are options for either class holds or make-up lessons.
-
If your child’s lesson falls on a public holiday (outside of the closure at Christmas/New Years) they will receive a make-up voucher for that lesson in the app, to be redeemed within the following four weeks.
We highly recommend make-up lessons be booked as close to the missed lesson as possible.
-
Our class hold option is perfect for holidays.
Up to four weeks of class holds are available free of charge every calendar year, in addition to our Christmas/New Year closure.
Two weeks' notice is required.
Your child’s spot will be held for up to four weeks.
To request a class hold, please email swimschool@goodlife.org.au with at least 2 weeks notice to guarantee your booking on return. If you wish to take a longer break your child will be taken out of their scheduled lessons and will need to re-enrol upon return.
-
If your child is injured or seriously ill and requires more than four weeks out of the pool, you can apply for a medical extension. A medical certificate will be required. Medical extensions can be requested for up to six weeks guaranteeing your spot upon return.
Longer absences, without a medical certificate, will require re-enrolment upon return.
