Chiltern Pool

VICSWIM has provided Victorians with fun and educational aquatic holiday programs since 1976. VICSWIM focuses on learn to swim and water safety skills, both in pools and open water venues across the state and now offers new locations to meet an increasing demand.

VICSWIM seeks to ensure that all Victorians have the opportunity to access water safety, survival and swimming programs for children that maximise safety and attitudes, ensuring confidence and the ability to enjoy aquatic environments.

The program is a low cost, 4-5 day intensive summer program teaching swimming and water safety to children from 4 years of age. Each program consists of 5 x 30 minute lessons (or 4 x 35 minute lessons for Week 1) starting at the same time each day throughout the week.

Parents are encouraged to enrol their children into 1, 2 or 3 programs across the 3 weeks on offer in January.

The VICSWIM Summer Kidz 2023 Program received over 16,500 bookings across the state and over 13,400 of those were in the first 24 hours! Don't leave it until it's too late!

Week one – Tuesday 2 January – Friday 5 January (3:30PM to 6:30PM)
Week two – Monday 8 January – Friday 12 January (3:30PM to 6:30PM)
