Hi,


have any kid learn swimming from Great White swimming school. Heard that they teach swimming at some polytechnics and SAFRAs.

Any recommendation on the teachers? Am looking for one hopefully at Republic Polytechnic.

[SwimInSG]

I really don’t know any instructors teaching at Republic Poly’s pool. It’s quite hard to fix a lesson there anyway. If you would consider public pools I would be glad to be of your service.

What if it rains… any make up lessons?

[SwimInSG]

Normally instructors will provide land based training if it rains. If there’s no lightning risk, lessons will continue even if is slight drizzle. So don’t worry. If you’re having private lessons (eg. 1-to-1), some instructors might allow make up lessons


For $220 per 15 lessons, it’s the normal rate. Around $15 per lesson. So don’t see any special about it. The con about your instructor is that he stated his timing is about 40-60min. For most lessons out there, it’s 60 mins, $60 per 4 lessons.

Happy fish is kinda expensive I find. They have lots of different programmes. Who will want to send a child for swimming lessons at the age of 2? =\ too young I think.

Nevertheless, I can only tell you, it’s hard to find another 5 kids to form a group.

P.S. I take mostly the area around the East of Singapore (Mostly pasir ris or tampines) for swimming classes. So I welcome you to PM me if you need an instructor.
