General Information
New Student Enrolment
New students will be given a PLC Aquatic swimming cap, which corresponds to their swimming level. This may be collected from the office and is to be worn during lessons.
Starting Programs Mid-way Through a Term
Pro-rata rates apply when booking programs after the term has commenced.

2. a sticker to be placed on the bubble on the front of the certificate which can be downloaded once the parent portal is is accessible
3. a new cap for the next level, to be collected for your next lesson
