THAME Leisure Centre is offering free public swimming sessions for children this summer who enrol for swimming lessons at the Jubilee Pool.
Enrolments are now being taken for the next set of 10 weeks, which start on August 1, at the pool, which is funded by Thame Town Council.
In a statement today, the centre states that it “provides structured lessons either within a group or as a private lessons operating to the Amateur Swimming Association?s (ASA) range of skills and proficiency. Courses run continuously throughout the year offering maximum opportunities for children and adults to learn to swim.
There is never a bad time to start because the younger your child, the quicker they will adapt to water. Babies as young as 6 months old can be taught the basic skills to save themselves in water. And of course, it is never too late to learn to swim, whatever your age.”
Di Boulton, General Manager at Thame Leisure Centre, said: “You really just can’t beat swimming as a form of fun exercise; Aerobically working your heart and improving cardio strength, (promoting weight loss), and not to mention the all around physical strength from water resistance. It’s a good environment for stretches difficult on land, and most of all it feels good, it’s sociable, refreshing and saves lives!”
