Our Achievements and Certificates

 

There are seven different levels of achievement for our swimmers to work towards, each level identifies the progressions or building blocks required before moving to the next level.

 

Fairy Penguin is our LEVEL 1 Certificate
This cute certificate is designed to help parents and infants in our Infant WaterPlay classes follow simple progressions to increase the infant’s confidence and independent swimming.

Bubblefish is our LEVEL 2 Certificate.

This special certificate is designed for our Learn to Swim beginners who are still gaining their confidence in a water environment without a parent. Once confidence is gained, submerging and independent swimming become the focus.

 

Hippo is our LEVEL 3 Certificate.

This groovy certificate gives the confident Learn to Swim swimmers the skills to move independently in the water without any support including floating and kicking.

 

Frog is our LEVEL 4 Certificate.

This racy certificate is for the swimmers ready to extend themselves over a full length and take their skills to the next level, strengthening the front and back kick technique and introducing Freestyle Breathing and Breaststroke.

 

Crab is our LEVEL 5 Certificate.

This cool certificate is for the swimmers combining the skills required in the strokes of Freestyle and Backstroke. Water safety components are more of a focus at this level too.

 

Crocodile is our LEVEL 6 Certificate.

This snappy certificate recognises the swimmers are ready to build stamina. These swimmers join our Mini Squad and work on distance in Freestyle and Backstroke, consolidate Breaststoke skills and emphasise more water safety and lifesaving skills.

 

Shark is our LEVEL 7 Certificate.
This SNZ Skills certificate for our Shark Squad records the swimmers achievements over increasing distances for each stroke. Butterfly is introduced at this level too.
