Everything you need to know
Rainbow Club is a network of social swimming clubs for children with a disability. With NDIS Provider status and our uniqueSwim the Rainbowprogram, Rainbow Club offers a fun and safe community for children with a disability to swim, interact, and play.
Our unique Swim the Rainbow program has been specially designed to teach children with a disability using structure, reward and progress in a social, fun and supportive aquatic environment.
Our new, improvedSwim the Rainbow 2.0program personalises learning to swim, includes social participation and leads to structured squad classes.
The swimming goals are aligned to the seven colours of the Rainbow (Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, and Violet). When working on the basic goals, it is all about safety. Once a child has mastered the basic goals, the class is expanded to include more than one child. Having more than one child in a class encourages social participation and introduces concepts such as taking turns, competing, winning.
Swim the Rainbow helps a child’s confidence increase as the personalised attention can enable a child to progress more quickly and many go on to participate in group classes. As the rapport between teacher and child grows, this helps to eliminate either a fear of water or over-confidence in their abilities around no water (no fear).
Rainbow Clubs operate on the weekends during school terms.
Members fees: $340 per termand you may use NDIS funding. Active Kids or First Lap vouchers are also accepted towards payment of the term fees.
