At District in Cork city, we offer kids group lessons every weekday afternoon Monday to Friday and on Saturday and Sunday mornings. Our children lessons take place predominantly in the deep end of the swimming pool where we find children learn faster and gain confidence much quicker. Armbands are a requirement for beginners as an aid to build on their confidence starting their swimming journey. We also have Improvers level for children who have more swimming experience and confidence. The aim is to work on breathing and strokes in this level. Finally, we have our more advanced lane swimming, led by our swim coach Eilis Burns, where children swim by distance with emphasis on stroke and breathing.

District Health & Leisure in Cork boasts a 25-meter 4 lane swimming pool with a depth from 0.8 meter to 2.2 meter.
