Great swim school and teachers

My 3 boys have been attending Splash Swim School in Sligo for a number of years and their swimming abilities have come on so much in that time. The teachers are patient and make lessons fun for them, which is really important at this young age. The venue is great and all communications are provided clearly and promptly when needed.

My two boys attended the swim school at the connemara coast galway and came on leaps and bounds and now joined a swimming club. The trainers were fantastic giving attention to the group but also individual attention. They looked forward to going every week and had great fun. An amazing school. Rachel

A huge thank you to Splash Swim School…

A huge thank you to Splash Swim School for seven wonderful years of swimming lessons. Our daughter gained confidence, strong swimming skills, and a genuine love for the water thanks to the amazing instructors. Seeing how confidently she swims today makes us incredibly happy. We would highly recommend Splash.

Highly recommended

We would highly recommend Splash Swim School. Our children have attended over the years and have developed a genuine love for swimming along with excellent technique. They are now confident swimmers and proud members of a swimming club.

The small class sizes and high-quality, friendly instruction truly set Splash Swim School apart

My son went in with little confidence 6…

My son went in with little confidence 6 months ago. Now He absolutely cannot wait for his lessons to come around each week. The classes are small which is great for our son who tend to be more nervous. And the fact they’re learning to swim in the deep end is a great advantage. A special mention to his teacher Aisling who has been a credit to Splash Swim School.

Highly recommend Splash Swim School

We would highly recommend Splash Swim School!

All 3 of our kids have attended splash swim school down through the years. All 3 kids love swimming and are now very confident swimmers.

The small class sizes and the excellent tuition provided by the teachers, which is always in a friendly manner, have made all the difference!

Thanks Brid and team!

Great swim school

We just came home from a snorkelling holiday and thanks to Splash Swim my 8 year old is now a confident swimmer and was able to come out exploring with us. Donnacha absolutely loved having Aaron as a teacher and we are so grateful for his patience and kindness teaching Donnacha to swim. Thanks to Brid, Elaine, Aaron and all at Splash Swim.

Splash Swim highly recommended

My son joined lessons at Splash Swim Sligo a year ago and thoroughly enjoys them. The instructors are patient, professional and always very helpful. The lessons have a good variety of activities so my son doesn't get bored. I would highly recommend Splash Swim for lessons.

Nothing but praise

Both our kids have been swimming with Splash for the past few years, making great progress and enjoying it a lot. All teachers we have met along the way are great in their own way, but all making the kids feel comfortable and letting each child progress at their own pace, with helpful tools and tricks, but without pressure to 'achieve/hurry/or go beyond the kids real comfortable pace'. Will definitely sign up both our kids again once we return to Ireland next year!

I would highly recommend Splash Swim…

I would highly recommend Splash Swim School. My daughter and son both attend the Sligo classes. My daughter has had a few teachers and is in her 3rd year now. All of her teachers were great and she has developed great confidence and skill already. My little boy is 4 and a half and in his first year but has started to gain confidence also. His teacher at the minute is Barry, my daughter also had Barry too. He is very patient and understanding with the kids. I look forward to seeing how they progress next year. Thank you to all the teachers.

Swimming since 6mths, now 4yrs old.

I've been bringing my daughter to Splash Swim classes since she was 6mths old. She is now 4yrs old and it's one of her favourite times of the week. She has gained such confidence in the water over the years and continues to improve thanks to the child friendly exercises the teachers provide in the pool.

She loves 'helping' in the class by demonstrating how the exercise is done to other children who have just started. I dont see us stopping any time soon as it's my favourite part of the week with her.

Fantastic swimming lessons

My two children have been attending swimming lessons every Sunday since they were just 4 months old, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. The instructors are absolutely fantastic—special shoutout to the Mullaghmore instructors Neil, Sarah, and Michael, who are all brilliant with kids. They’re patient, enthusiastic, and really know how to make the lessons fun and engaging. It’s been amazing. My children love it and I love having that time with them. Highly recommend!

Excellent facility

Lessons in Ballaghaderreen Swim Splash are of very high quality, instructors are always engaged and there are lovely small groups. Assessment is continuous and parents are advised of appropriate level for their child. The pool runs like clockwork, extremely efficient. Managers are always on site to answer questions or queries and are very approachable. Response to a query on line is very fast. Staff are very accommodating in relation to making up missed lessons if they are made aware in advance and of course if possible. Most importantly, it is local to me and very convenient, plenty of parking and my daughter LOVES IT!!

Mary! What a lovely review. It's so positive and comprehensive. We are settling in to our new Ballaghaderreen home quickly and are receiving amazing support but it's really nice to see you highlight so many aspects of our service. We try to strike a balance between efficiency and fun and hope we manage to balance both aspects. We hope your family will continue to improve in swimming and you will be happy with your investment in their future! Thanks again, Mary. Much appreciated 😊
