New swim class for infants in Selwyn
Selwyn District Council media release: 16th September 2026
The Selwyn Aquatic Centre is launching Minnows this October - a brand-new swim class designed especially for babies aged 4 to 6 months.
During the class, babies will learn to develop body control and sensory awareness, along with skills such as kicking, reaching, rolling, and head control, to help support their early development.
While the Selwyn Aquatic Centre offers a range of swim classes for 6 to 36 months, this is the first time the Centre has offered a class for 4 to 6-month-olds.
Minnows classes will run from 12th October to 17th December 2026, with sessions held:
- Mondays from 9 to 9.25am;
- Wednesdays from 11.05 to 11.30am; and
- Thursdays from 11.10 to 11.35am.
There are only six spaces available per class, so get in quick if you’re interested. Bookings open on Monday 21st September 2026.
