We have two pools:

  • Scotch College, 76 Shenton Road, Swanbourne, 6010, Perth, WA

A map of the parking and pool location can be found within the Locations tab on the website.

  • Scotch College: The pool has both male and female change rooms located next to the pool within the Scotch College gymnasium.
  • Iona Presentation College: Both male and female change rooms are located next to the pool within the Iona sports centre.

If your child is new to Hooked Swim School, we have a breakdown of the different levels outlined on the website to help you select the correct level for your child. If you are still unsure, we encourage you to book in for an introductory assessment to ensure they are put into the correct class to continue their swimming development. If your child is under the age of 5 the assessment can be done over the phone and if they are 5 or older the assessment will be done at the pool. The in-water assessment will take between 5 and 10 minutes.

Due to scheduling, we do not guarantee make-up sessions. However, make-up tokens can be redeemed via the customer portal.

If your child is sick with a contagious illness we recommend that they stay at home and rest. This will help prevent the illness from spreading to other swimmers in the group. Then please contact us to try and organise a make up if we have space.

  • Your child will need a snug-fitting pair of bathers and goggles. We also recommend children wear a swimming cap if they have long hair. 
  • For our squad levels we ask that all swimmers have a kickboard, pull buoy and fins.
  • We also encourage warm clothes to put on after swimming.
  • With swimming being an essential life skill, particularly living in Perth where we are surround by amazing beaches and river, we recommend that you highlight the importance of swimming to your children by helping them understand why it is such an important skill to learn.
  • Tell them that they will have a lot of fun swimming, playing games and making new friends. Our staff will also do their very best in ensuring it is a welcoming experience with lots of positive reinforcements and fun while helping your child develop their skills.

All children learn to swim at different speeds and we encourage all parents to be patient with their child’s development. Since there are so many skills to master in swimming your child might progress quickly with some and longer with others. The best thing you can do as a parent is make a big deal of the little successes and keep encouraging your child to keep up the great work.
