The Centre offers a range of structured programs including Learn to Swim classes for all ages from infants – adults as well as squad training and competitive swimming pathways.
OUR SWIMMING PATHWAY
LEARN TO SWIM PROGRAM
The CGGS Learn to Swim program provides a structured, progressive pathway from infant water familiarisation and safety skills, through to strong, independant swimming across all strokes. The focus is on water safety, confidence, correct technique and enjoyment, with progression based on skill development. Each level builds essential foundations that prepare swimmers for a smooth transition into the Squad program.
SQUAD PROGRAM
The CGGS Aquatic Club support swimmers who demonstrate readiness, commitment and enthusiasm for structured training by our elite coaches and competition. Progression from the LTS program continues through Junior Squad to National and Youth Squads, with focuses on technical excellence, fitness, race skills and long term athlete development. Entry into Squad is by invitation and based on skill, attitude and training readiness.
ADDITIONAL LESSONS
In addition to our core Learn to Swim and Squad pathways, CGGS Swim School offers a limited number of Additional Swimming Classes designed to support swimmers whose needs sit outside the regular curriculum. These classes provide a flexible, supportive environment for participants who are new to swimming, returning after time away, or seeking to build confidence and foundational skills without joining age-based programs.
