About the Business

Welcome to Sweeney's Swim School, a renowned establishment located in the beautiful suburb of Altona, Australia. We pride ourselves on being a point of interest and a school dedicated to providing top-quality swimming education and water safety skills to children of all ages.
To ensure a smooth registration process, we kindly ask you to click on the provided link to sign up for your family portal: https://b1101325.family-portal.com.au/. This portal will serve as your platform for all necessary communication and updates regarding your child's swimming journey.
In light of the ongoing pandemic, it is mandatory for all parents, carers, guardians, and staff to be fully vaccinated before entering our premises. Upon arrival, we require you to check in using our QR code and present your vaccination status to our staff members. This can be done through the Services Victoria app, a printed copy of your certificate, or a letter of exemption from your doctor. Regrettably, children cannot be unsupervised within our facility, and if proof of vaccination is not provided by the parent or carer, we will be unable to admit the child.
To comply with density limits, we kindly request that only one parent or guardian per family attends the facility. Our squash court will continue to serve as a marshalling area before your child's lesson, ensuring a smooth and organized experience for all.
In line with safety protocols, we ask that patrons limit their use of the changeroom facilities during this time. Additionally, parents and carers are required to wear masks while inside our facility. However, our teaching staff are not required to wear masks while conducting lessons. For parents participating in our tadpole classes, masks are not necessary while in the water with your baby.
Rest assured that our Covid Safe Plan has been updated to reflect the current government requirements, ensuring a safe and secure environment for all our students and staff. We take the health and well-being of our community seriously, and in the event of a reported case of COVID-19 on our premises, we will follow all directives from our state health authority and adhere to thorough cleaning and disinfecting procedures.
At Sweeney's Swim School, we prioritize hygiene and cleanliness. Our increased cleaning schedule includes regular sanitization of equipment used during lessons. For our tadpole classes, we encourage parents to bring their own bubble float and small bath toy to each lesson, further enhancing safety measures.
To facilitate the "Get in, Swim, Get Out" approach, we have partnered with Great Aussie Swim Parkas, offering our customers a 15% discount on their fantastic products. These swim parkas are designed to keep your child warm and comfortable before and after their lessons.
Our ultimate goal at Sweeney's Swim School is to ensure that each child feels safe, strong, and confident in and around the water. Whether your child is just starting their swimming journey or looking to refine their skills, our experienced and dedicated instructors are here to guide them every step of the way.
If you were enrolled with us during our last closure on Friday, August 6th, please note that your enrollment remains valid, and there is no need to re-enroll. We will also honor any existing make-up lessons, although they can currently only be booked one day in advance. Simply give us a call on the day you wish to arrange a make-up class, and we will do our best to accommodate you based on availability.
Thank you for choosing Sweeney's Swim School, where safety, education, and fun come together to create a memorable swimming experience for your child.
Reviews
"The recent upgrades at Sweeney’s have made such a difference! We love the online booking system so we can reschedule classes if the kids are sick (so often in Winter!) or if you know you’re going to be away. No need to call or go in, just change it online! The family change pods are also great if you need to change multiple kiddies and can have the privacy of your own little cubicle. We’ve found other swim schools a bit overwhelming for our little one, but the smaller facility means the noise isn’t such a big factor and the teachers can give more 1:1 support. It’s also great to know the owners have a wealth of experience and every family is known."
"Sweeney's is the best swim school in Altona!! The instructors are fantastic and my children absolutely love coming to their lessons every week. We highly recommend!"
"Our kids came across from another swim school and we could not have been happier. They learnt and improved so much, always had a great time as the staff are all super engaged and caring. Family feel which is wonderful."
"Really great environment, taking into account my sons hearing loss. I like watching how much he improves each lesson. Also very kind understanding owners, staff and instructors. I prefer this swim school to the previous one he gets much more one on one time and trusts the instructors. Recommend for sure."
"My son absolutely loves his lessons at Sweeneys. The instructors are fantastic and know each individual kid's limit. You feel part of a family at Sweeneys, not just another customer. I would highly recommend the Advance Tadpole classes. My daughter had lessons at a different school and wasn't confident in deep water til she was 5 but with Sweeneys lessons, I've been able to comfortably watch my son from the side while he jumps in the deep end unaided on holidays from 3yrs. His lessons have made him confident and very competent in the water which is why i chose to travel 30min to have him taught at Sweeneys. Thanks for everything x"
