Guidelines

Welcome to the Sandhills Sandsharks Swim School! For safety and efficiency, we have a few guidelines to follow:

• It is requested that parents do not sit by or interrupt their child’s class. There are benches beside the pool and picnic tables outside for your convenience.
• If a parent is asked to leave the pool deck, please do so. Sometimes a child will perform better when they do not have a parent to concentrate on.
• If you have any questions, please ask once the class is over. Interruptions during class often make it hard to re-start. We will make sure that after class a head teacher is available to answer any questions you may have.
• We suggest that you bring goggles to class. Our personal favorites are the Speedo Futurity Jr. Goggles or the Speedo Hydrospex Jr. goggles, available from kastawayswimwear.com for about $13.00. This may seem a bit pricey, but they are very high quality and will last for a long time.
• Please make sure swim suits will not fall off in the water. For girls, one-piece suits are suggested and for boys, suits without pockets that fit snugly.
• Make sure your child goes to the bathroom before class. Bathrooms are out the double glass doors. Girls are to the left, boys are to the right.
• Registration and payments go in the wooden box with “SSS” lettered on it. It is inside the front doors on the right.
• Please do not enter or exit through the doors outside by the shallow end of the pool.
• Because our pool has no windows, classes will be canceled for thunderstorms only if they are distracting to the children.
