Babies & Toddlers
Our Babies and Toddler's program is built on the philosophy that confidence in the water is key to not only a swimmer’s development, but also to a child’s enjoyment of water and swimming in all its forms. Our Babies and Toddler's program is for children aged from 6 months to three years old. These classes are the first steps on a young swimmer’s journey!

Pre-School
Our Pre-school A, B and C classes are designed for children aged 3, 4 and 5 years old. Within these levels children will be in a class independent of their parent, building confidence and water awareness while learning the foundations of swimming.

School-Aged
Starting from children aged five, the sequential teaching system develops skills as the swimmer’s proficiency improves and they progress from level to level. Whilst technical excellence is the fundamental cornerstone of our program, water safety is an important element of the learn to swim process.

About Us
Meet Maidie and Michelle Laidlaw, mother and daughter duo who run the Blue Fin Program.
Michelle is the Founder and Owner of the Blue Fin Swim School and has been operating this business since 1980. Michelle oversees both the learn-to-swim program and squad.
As Michelle’s daughter, Maidie was thrown into swimming at a very young age. While most children went to day care, Maidie had swimming lessons, starting a life long passion for the water!
As the Director of the Swim School Program, Maidie brings a passion for Pre-School Aquatics and has a strong understanding of all aspects of the swimming stroke.
At Blue Fin, we believe that confidence in the water is key, not only to a swimmer’s development but also to child’s enjoyment of water in all its forms.
