About us

John Sugden Swim School has been established since 1995. We are a unique and progressive organisation providing a very supportive swimming community for the development of the individual. In this educational setting its the swimmer first but the teachers and staff make this happen! We teach swimming to children aged 3-16 yrs & adults at our own newly renovated 25m Heated Indoor Private Swimming Pool in Kilsyth South, as well as private school pools in other eastern suburbs. Among the swimming levels, we have various Junior swimmers that require technical development and advanced coaching inclusive of personal aquatic survival skills. We wouldn't have a community of swimmers and parents to be so appreciative of without the wonderful staff, teachers and coaches involved over the many years. Its now time to pass the baton to a new swim teacher so they can develop into a very important part of this organisation.
