Swimming is a great sport and recreation skill for all ages. It can provide a lifetime of safe water-based activities with family and friends.

At Stirling Leisure, we believe that learning to swim is essential to everyday life in WA. With our beaches, pools and lakes, it is vital that both children and adults can swim confidently and safely.
Lessons are available at all three City of Stirling aquatic centres:
- Inglewood
- Balga
- Scarborough Beach.
