Swimming at St Joseph’s NS
At St Joseph’s NS, we believe swimming is a vital life skill, and we are proud to offer every pupil the chance to take part in swimming lessons during their time at school. Swimming is an important part of our curriculum, and we make sure it’s accessible to all pupils.
Our swimming lessons take place in the pool at Kilcornan, where pupils are guided by a professional coach. The lessons focus on building water confidence, stroke technique, and safety skills in the water. Whether pupils are beginners or more advanced swimmers, they receive instruction tailored to their individual needs and progress.
We strongly believe in the benefits of aquatics, as it helps develop physical fitness, coordination, and water safety awareness. Swimming also promotes teamwork, confidence, and resilience. We’re committed to ensuring all pupils experience the joy and importance of swimming, while learning valuable skills that can be used for a lifetime.
