Halstead Centre

"As an ex swimmer and swimming teacher I can honestly say the lessons here are absolutely fantastic!"

"Great little training pool. Friendly, knowledgeable staff. Focus on smaller class sizes and so teaching children in a more intimate, quiet, intensive manner. Our 5 year old enjoys his lessons here very much. Recommended for parents looking to get swimming lessons; not cheap, but worth the price."

"My daughter had been to other swimming lessons when she was younger, but she started at the Halstead Centre a couple of years ago, coming in at stage 5. She has now finished all the stages, including the competitive swimming stage. She’s really enjoyed coming to swimming lessons at the Halstead Centre. Her technique has improved greatly and she now has great skills for joining a swimming club and doing competitions."

"My son's usual teacher Ella is amazing with the children. I would give her 5+ stars. However, my son had a different swimming teacher this lesson. She was very assertive and told him off a couple of times because he couldnt hack backstroke rather than encouraging him or reassuring him. He was very upset in the pool and then he came out crying and I asked her why she was like that with him during the lesson and she said she wasn't when I could see and hear what was being said during the lesson. She really upset my son, so he will not be returning. I contacted the manager at the Halstead centre and she never got back to me, there was no apology or anything and my son had been going there 2+ years. Very disappointed."

"1st swimming lesson today of my 3 year old grandaughter. Only 3 in the class which is great. You think half hour is not long but she learnt loads. She loved it. Worth ever penny cant wait for next week"
