Swimming Club open day - Alleyn's School - Sun 22 March

[AlasdairRichardson]

St James's Swimming club has been active in Dulwich since 1878. We meet twice weekly (at Dulwich College on Thurday evening and Alleyn's School on Sunday morning). The club is run by volunteers and the coaches are all ASA qualified. You can find out more details on our website at sjsc.org.uk.

On Sunday March 22 we are having a free open session at Alleyn's pool 11.30 - 12.30. Come along to take part in a free session with some front crawl coaching, length training and fun races at the end. Any children must be able to swim at least a length, as we improve swimmers we do not teach from scratch, and the pool at Alleyn's is not suitable for non swimmers. If you do come please turn up in time for a prompt start in the pool at 11.30.

If your child learned to swim at school but is not getting any more sessions, and does not want to progress to a 5 day a week training regime, this is the perfect middle ground where they can learn to swim all 4 strokes with expert coaching but without too much pressure (and lots of fun).

If you enjoy the session you can sign up to join, annual membership is ?50 or ?25 if under 17 or under 21 and in full time education (this covers ASA membership and incidental expenses of the club). Then you just pay ?3 a session (which covers the bath hire).

If you want more information you can reply to this post, visit the web site where there is a contact form, mail [email protected], or phone Alasdair on 07818 077 057 (leave a message if I don't answer). Otherwise just turn up at Alleyn's school pool on March 22.

See you there!

Is this in the pool that is actually within the school grounds - on Townley Road?

[AlasdairRichardson]

Yes, enter through pedestrian gate by the lodge in Townley Road. Walk down between a couple of buildings then left and right. At which stage you will see the dining room on your left, and the pool entrance is straight ahead. We will try to pur up a couple of signs to direct people ...
