Here at the J, our campers get to enjoy our 6-lane indoor pool every single summer day! Whether they’re already super swimmers or just taking their first strokes, all our campers gain water confidence and skills from our qualified instructors.

Awesome activities

Our campers love to swim every day! They benefit from instructional swim sessions and enjoy free swim time too. Swim at camp is fully inclusive, supporting kids of all skill levels and abilities to develop their water confidence and skills at their own pace. At the same time, they have a lot of fun cooling off and creating water games with their friends.

Camp skills

A vital life skill, learning to swim is great for recreation, exercise, and safety. Swimming every day helps our campers to be active and healthy, to have fun, and to feel good in the water. They will build confidence around water, develop their swim skills, and acquire invaluable water safety awareness.

Meet the team Camp is staffed by a team of certified lifeguards and swim instructors who make sure our campers are safe and comfortable in the water. Marta is one of our swim instructors. She really enjoys seeing how kids progress as she supports them to get used to the water, learn basic skills, and then develop their techniques. When she is not at the pool, she can still be found on the water as she is also a rower!

Your stories Like many of our campers, Ellie and Maya both think the water is so much fun! Watch this video clip to find out why they “really like swimming in the pool”.

We can’t wait to see you at camp for a summer of fun! ☀️
