Swimming Assessments
All students 4 years and over that are new to ASALC’s Learn to Swim program (including students that have been away for 2 or more terms) are required to have an assessment to ensure that they are placed in the correct level of our program. Assessment is crucial for ensuring your child is allocated the appropriate level based on their current swimming ability, to ensure the skills they will be working towards in lessons are relevant.
