School Swimming Lessons
Engaging, inclusive, and tailored to your school
Easyswim partners with over 20 schools across the Wellington region to deliver fun, curriculum-aligned swimming and water safety lessons for students of all abilities.
Our goal is to provide high-quality, inclusive lessons that help every student grow in skill and confidence – whether they’re new to the water or building advanced techniques.
Programme Highlights:
- 30-minute lessons, typically run over one term
- Adaptable structure and timing to suit your school’s needs
- Aligned with school curriculum
Flexible Delivery Options:
- Onsite – We come to your school pool, making it easy for students to participate without travel.
- Offsite – Students visit one of our Easyswim locations for lessons in a purpose-built, supportive environment.
Our experienced instructors create a safe, engaging atmosphere where tamariki can thrive. Whether students are gaining confidence, learning core swimming skills, or preparing for sports events, we’re here to support their progress every step of the way.
Fundamental Movement:
GymSports for Schools
Building Confidence and Skills Onsite
Our Easymoves Fundamental Movement Programme helps students build essential physical skills for movement, sport, and everyday life. Using fun, dynamic activities inspired by gymnastics and parkour, the programme encourages students to explore how their bodies move, while developing strength, balance, coordination, and confidence.
Each session is carefully structured to build physical skills in a way that’s fun, inclusive, and adaptable to all ability levels. Easymoves isn’t just about movement - it also supports wider learning and wellbeing in the classroom.
Students Benefit Through:
- Improved Classroom Behaviour and Focus: Physical activity helps students settle, self-regulate, and re-engage in learning.
- Enhanced Fine Motor Skills and Coordination: Foundational skills like balance, jumping, landing, and spatial awareness transfer to both sports and everyday tasks.
- Increased Physical Confidence: Every child is encouraged to progress at their own pace, helping them feel more capable and confident in their bodies.
We bring all the equipment needed, making it easy to run the programme onsite at your school. Each session is delivered by two experienced coaches who work alongside the classroom teacher, ensuring a smooth, supportive experience for both students and staff.
Whether you're looking to boost student engagement, support physical development, or simply add some fun and movement into the school day, Easymoves is a great way to get kids moving, learning, and growing.

Extra Activities and Experiences
Beyond the Pool
At Easyswim, we're keen to encourage our young people to challenge themselves and stay active! Alongside our core swim and movement programmes, we also offer unique experiences that are ideal as one-off events or as part of a broader physical education programme.
Our Exciting Offerings Include:
- Kayaking Experiences: Students will gain confidence on the water as they learn key kayaking skills: getting in and out of a kayak safely, holding a paddle correctly, and mastering basic paddling techniques for smooth movement and steering.
- Snorkelling Adventures: Students will be introduced to the basics of snorkelling—how to wear a mask properly, breathe through a snorkel, and feel comfortable in the water. Once confident, they’ll take on fun snorkelling challenges to build skills and boost underwater confidence. Watch our Snorkelling Video.
- Splash Attack: This is Easyswim’s take on Junior Water Polo! Splash Attack gives students an exciting introduction to a sport typically reserved for older age groups. Participants will learn core skills like passing, shooting, and swimming with the ball while developing teamwork and game awareness. Watch our Splash Attack Video.
- Mini-Triathlons & Swimming Prep Sessions: We can support schools both in the lead-up to race day and on the day itself. Our structured swim training sessions help students build endurance, improve fitness, and develop the key skills they need to feel confident and ready for their mini-triathlon.

School Lesson Survey
At Easyswim we pride ourselves on providing quality productive lessons for school groups. To do this we need to know as much about your child as possible. If your child’s school is coming to Easyswim for lessons please complete the survey below. If your child currently swims with Easyswim either in the current or previous term you are not required to fill out a survey. If your child swims at another swim school please list as much information about their level as possible.
Remember once you have completed the course of school lessons we will let you know your child’s Easyswim level and how to book.
