In partnership with Melbourne Swimming Club, we are dedicated to helping swimmers of all ages and skills achieve their full potential in the pool!

At Ruyton Aquatics, our Learn to Swim program is designed to help every child develop confidence, safety skills and strong swimming technique in a supportive and engaging environment. Our experienced instructors guide students through a progressive curriculum that builds water confidence, correct stroke development and essential water safety awareness. Our swimming lessons are provided to students of Ruyton Girls’ School and the broader community. Students can start swimming with us from as early as 6 months old, all the way up to stroke development and adult class.

Pre-School

Children can be in an independent swimming class from 3 years old. Pre-school age classes are offered up to Level 2 on weekday mornings, allowing a quieter learning environment for younger swimmers.

School Age

Our school age classes offer a progressive curriculum of 7 levels, ranging from Developing 1 to Level 6 offering technique and water safety skills. We are proud to be in partnership with Melbourne Swimming Club and offer a streamlined progression directly into their squads on completion of Level 6. 

Squad

Ruyton Girls' School has partnered with Melbourne Swimming Club (MSC), one of Melbourne’s premier competitive swimming clubs to operate the training squads program at Ruyton’s aquatic facility known as MSC at Ruyton

Led by former Australian Olympic Coach Ian Pope and supported by Julie-Anne Roberts, MSC at Ruyton provides squad sessions from pre-squad, through to a state and national level. MSC staff also coach Ruyton’s SYDSA and GSV swimming teams.
 
By joining forces, Melbourne Swimming Club and Ruyton Girls' School have leveraged their shared focus on empowering individuals to reach their potential and created a powerful collaboration. This partnership fosters the development of swimming performance at Ruyton and strengthen MSC’s reputation for quality coaching expertise, and the development of exceptional athletes.
