Swimming

At St Lawrence, we are dedicated to fostering an environment where every student has the opportunity to participate in swimming, whether for fitness, recreation, or competitive achievement. Our mission is to provide a comprehensive swimming programme that caters to all skill levels, from beginners learning to swim to advanced swimmers aiming for performance excellence.

We believe that swimming is not only a vital life skill but also a fantastic way to promote physical fitness and well-being. Our swimming facilities and programmes are designed to encourage students to embrace swimming as a lifelong activity. We offer a range of swimming activities which are tailored to meet the diverse needs of our students, ensuring that everyone has the chance to enjoy the water in a way that suits them best.

For those interested in pursuing swimming competitively, we provide extensive support and training to help them reach their goals. Our experienced team, led by Head of Swimming, Dan Cross, work closely with each swimmer to develop their skills, improve their techniques, and build their confidence.
