Swimming

Our coached swimming sessions take place during the winter months at Oakham School pool, with a small additional cost to attend.

Our next block of coached sessions starts on Monday 9th November 2026 and runs for six weeks:

📅 Mondays for 6 weeks
🕕 6pm – 7pm
📍 Oakham School pool

Some previous swimming experience is needed to take part. You should be comfortable putting your face in the water and, ideally, be able to swim at least one length of the pool.
