Stroke Development and Squads in a beautiful 25m salt water pool in leafy Samford. Open to the public.

We teach your children how to swim in a private, toasty, outdoor pool. We care about your child’s joy in the water and use kindness, patience and fun to build trust and confidence with every stroke.

Choosing the right place

Choosing the right team to teach your child (or yourself), is important. Get it right – and coming to swimming will be something you both look forward to for years.

The best way for you, your baby, your child or teen to love the water is to have reasons to LOVE coming to see us. We believe in fun, laughter and the joy of being outdoors. We believe in working hard and rewarding effort.

A child learning to swim and a teen pushing their limits should feel positive and successful.

It is the seed from which GRIT grows.

Your Swimming Teachers and Coaches

We all have a minimum of two coaching qualifications. Infant aquatics for baby swimming lessons and stroke development for the older swimmers and our Head Coach Tanya is an accredited Swimming Australia Development Coach.

We are all practiced in compassion, kindness and getting creative when something isn’t working for your child.

Meet the team

I JUST CANNOT recommend this school enough. The most amazing, progressive, forward thinking, patient, funny teachers and it is an absolute pleasure taking my kids every week. They love it and they are learning some amazing skills..

Erin C. - Mum of Two

My kids absolutely love Little Big Swim School and have really progressed since switching from another place. Little Big has a really fun vibe, fosters a sense of community and the teachers really connect with the kids as individuals in their small classes. So happy.

Sarah H. - Mum of Three

I love that the teachers are interested in the kids’ lives, and not just teaching swimming. They often ask about their school, their days, their weekends and the kids respond really well to that. So thank you!
