Campbelltown and Camden have a handful of swimming options for kids, from public pools to learn-to-swim schools and a club for children who want to race. Our list is short at the moment, so this guide covers what we hold and what to ask before you sign up.
Pools in Campbelltown and Camden
Camden War Memorial Pool is listed in Camden, and Eagle Vale Swimming Pool is listed in Campbelltown. Opening hours, entry costs and the ages each pool welcomes are not in our information, so check with the pool before you go. A quick call before a hot-weather trip can save a wasted drive. Whatever you choose, children in or near water need an adult watching closely, so ask what supervision the pool expects of parents.
Lessons and swim schools
Learn To Swim Macarthur and Narellan Swimming Academy are both listed in Camden, and Swim Experts is listed in Campbelltown. We do not hold their class days, age ranges or prices, so ask each one directly. Some questions worth asking:
- What age do you start from, and how do you place a child in a class?
- How many children are in each class?
- Is there a trial lesson or an assessment first?
- What happens if we miss a week?
Swimming clubs
Campbelltown Amateur Swimming Club is the club on our list. Clubs often suit children who can already swim and want to build fitness or try racing, but each club sets its own rules. Ask what skills a new member needs, whether there is a trial and how training and race days are organised.
Planning around swimming
Pick a place that is easy to reach from home. A weekly class is much easier to keep up when the trip is short. Pack towels, goggles, a snack and a bag for wet clothes, and allow time to get changed afterwards. If your child is nervous in the water, ask whether parents can watch from the side and whether a short trial is possible. Starting with a small group and a patient teacher usually matters more than choosing the closest pool.
Check the latest
We are still adding swimming classes and events in the area. The pools, schools and clubs below link to their own pages, and those pages have the latest times and costs. If something looks right for your family, contact the organiser first to confirm there is space.
