5 year old swimming

[hpsaucey]

Hello there,

I've yet to really take my five year old swimming but think he'd finally like to go. Can anyone recommend classes/a pool that aren't too manic. he's pretty sensitive to noise so I'd really like to try and find somewhere relatively calm/quiet.

Any ideas gratefully received.

I found Beckenham Spa pool quite quiet when we went - likewise my 2yr old doesn't like noise and she was ok. I think we managed to avoid the full-on-kids periods - which may be harder if you 5yr old is in school and a bit restricted in times. Perhaps earlier mornings would work. (I'm thinking 9am, not 7!)
