    • Excellent class, excellent teaching from the staff. Wry friendly and approachable. Helpful and understanding. My child loves swimming and he loves the class.

    • My little boy has been going to Turtle Tots since he was 8 months old. Approaching his 3rd birthday this year, he thoroughly enjoys his swimming lessons and is SO confident within the water. The lessons are well planned out, with songs, rhymes and activities that are great for building skills in the water and great recognition of achievement through certificates and badges. Colum and Becky are fantastic teachers and I could not recommend Turtle Tots enough for their dedication to helping children learn such important skills for life.

    • Excellent class, my son loves it. Collum is a fantastic teacher. Recommend all day long

    • Colum is brilliant instructor, makes the babies and parents feel very comfortable. My little one loved his first term with Turtle Tots and is enjoying his new term already. His confidence has grown and grown he loves being in the water thanks to Turtle Tots

    • We’ve loved attending the Turtle Tots sessions and watching our boy grow from being incapable to do anything in the water, to being able to swim on his own. It’s been a joy to attend the lessons and I’m gutted he’s completed all the levels. I’ll miss our Sunday morning sessions. Thanks Colum
