From Our Family, to Yours

Learn to swim, learn to grow through a child-centered approach to sports. At The Swim Lab, kids learn through play, and grow as active, confident kids who thrive in the pool and beyond.

Structured swimming programmes for beginner to competitive swimmers - whether toddler, teen, or adult. X Lab programmes are designed to nurture swimmers’ athletic and holistic growth.

Get moving, growing schooling at Centre for Movement, our family-friendly multi-sports centre offering positive, holistic sports experiences for kids, parents, and everyone in between.

Supporting our collective of sports education brands, Sports Schooling leads on capacity-building and professional development across our family of schools, ensuring consistent design, delivery and impact.

“Kids can come and learn, have fun and do things differently, but also pick up life skills that will last them the rest of their lives.”
