www.littlekickers.co.uk Comments:
These sessions are split into two age groups: 2.5
to 3.5 years and 3.5 to 5 years. Each session has 3 x 15 minute
sections. Its pretty much party games with a football but its great
fun, good exercise, a good lesson in team playing and my son is very excited
each Tuesday to be going along! Courses in Farnham at the Bourne
Tennis Club but also at Crondall, Farnborough and Guildford. Both boys
and girls welcome. See website for details.
Trampolining
Address: Farnham Sports Centre Tel: 01252 711119 Comments: Bounce-a-lot: Courses available for 2-4 year olds with an accompanying adult. Booking essential Bouncing Toddlers: Courses available for a session of fun on the trampoline. Minimum age: 3 years old. Booking essential.
Swimming
Address: Farnham Sports Centre Tel: 01252 711119 Comments:
Various classes available on Mon, Wed, Fri and
Sat. For the younger ones. An adult is expected to accompany them
in the water. For older ones (3+) they can go in on their own.
The booking system is a bit cumbersome. To
get your required lesson you have to turn up on an allotted Saturday booking
morning and queue. The later you get there the less chance you have of
getting your place. It usually starts at 9.00am but if there are
limited places people have been known to be there at 8.00am or even before.
The best course of action is to ring up on the Friday before and find out
how many places are available on the required course times. If there
are many then you can afford to get there a bit later. Take a flask of
coffee and some reading matter as it can be a long wait.
Mid week and weekend courses run all through the
year including half term and holidays. Add parking costs on to the true cost
of the lessons. PLEASE NOTE THAT POOLS CLOSE

Comments: Although this is a bit
further out the booking system is better: Just ring and put your name
on the waiting list and wait for the call. Class sizes are up to 8 for
the little ones. No arm bands are used and we think these classes are
a bit friendlier than Farnham with nursery rhymes and more child orientated
activities helping your child build confidence in the water and feel
comfortable about going under. Swimming hats must be worn that are
available at reception. Mid week and weekend courses run all through
the year including half term and holidays. Parking costs apply.

Comments: A smaller, cosier pool
normally with more than one lesson going on at a time so it can get quite
busy for spectators. Mixed abilities can be in the same class but
split by more than one teacher in the pool. Mid-week and weekend
courses run only during term time. Toddler sessions can get quite
full, older/better ability children places are more available. Free
