Learn To Swim: Ipswich

Learn to Swim: Ipswich

Welcome to The Swim Factory Ipswich. The heart and soul of swimming lessons within Ipswich for over 45 years.

Learn to swim: Call Ipswich

Ipswich: Where over 30,000 people have learnt to swim.


Our Ipswich swim school has the luxury of two heated indoor swimming pools. One is specifically designed for infants and toddlers kept at 33 degrees while the other is a 20 metre lap pool ideal for children of all ages whether they are learning to swim or enjoying squad training. This pool is heated to 31 degrees.

 

Ledges have been built into both pools to ensure users can move safely in the pool enabling them to learn new skills such as balance, co-ordination and independence throughout their lessons.

 

Seating is available for parents, family and friends to watch the children enjoy their swimming lesson on the pool deck. In addition, there is also a separate seating area which allows you to sit at a table to enjoy a bite to eat or just relax.

 

Male, female and unisex changing facilities are available with showers to ensure you and your child have all the amenities required for a comfortable and enjoyable visit. For infants “baby change” tables are available both prior to and after each lesson.

 

Also available is a range of swim gear at our swim shop in addition to refreshments which can be purchased on site.
