About us
We are here to provide Newcastle with the best quality swimming lessons for your little one(s) starting at 4 months old through to the elderly covering all swimming levels from the beginner to National Rep Competition Swimmer.
Our building was originally purpose built in 1967 and well maintained as a functioning swimming pool ever since (newer additions including a mineral magna pool were completed in 2013)
Philosophy
Children learn with their own body weight not with the enhancement of floatation devices/aids such as bubbles.
Basic Survival Skills is one of the most important aspects of learning to swim.
Clean Pool Policy
Arnolds Swim Centre have a “Clean Pool Policy” where we strive to continuously provide the cleanest environment for you and your children to learn to swim and enjoy.
With a combination of best quality minerals and cleaning agents we maintain all 3 pools to the highest possible standard whilst reducing skin irritation.
Eco Friendly
Arnolds Swim Centre use the natural environment such as solar heating whenever possible to reduce the need to use city supplied resources to operate our 3 indoor heated pools.
Natural Lighting is provided by skylight panels throughout the centre.
