Fulton Swim School | Swimming Lessons Botany

Lovely teachers, lovely manager, warm welcome everything. Great to know your kids swimming progress from the app. Highly recommended

Fulton swim school is great, both my girls have learnt to swim with the team here. Friendly and welcoming, there's a great vibe in the training as well. Highly recommended!

Too much bleach! Last weekend after her swim lesson my 20 month old daughters clothes dropped on the ground for a split second in the changing room. Imagine my surprise when we get home and find half her sleeve is bleached and there are bleach marks all over the dress she is wearing. Thank goodness I had another layer on under the top and dress that was ruined as I would hate for that strength of bleach to have come into contact with her skin. Two items of clothing completely ruined and a coat with bleach marks on the cuff. When I approached Fulton Swim School to replace these items of clothing due to them being damaged on their premises, they advised they would not replace them and seemed to show little concern over the fact there was bleach on the floors of a facility where primarily children are. They also set up my Fulton App to make me agree to their policies again before accessing the app. Billing, Rules/t&c's and a waiver. Not a happy customer currently.

The 2 stars are for the teachers. They are amazing - Paige, Jack, Annie all of them are really good. The biggest issue I have is that they have max 8 kids in their class. There is no space for the kids to realistically kick and paddle or do monkey bars or anything else in that small space they have for the class. I have complained about this twice and haven't heard back; they have increased their fees and I don't mind that as long as it's worth it. As of now it isn't. Even 6 in that small space is pushing it, let alpne 7 or 8. We will be moving to another swim school where our friends go where they have a max limit of 6 and a bigger space. I would have loved to have continued my daughters classes here and had the little one we have on the way go there as well as I love the teachers. But wouldn't recommendFulton to anyone as there will be no learning if there is no space, then it's essentially a waste of money.

Fantastic teachers at Botany, especially Paige who takes the Tuesday baby classes. Make up classes are great for illness and holidays. Highly recommend swimming as an activity for your LO

HIGHLY recommend. Absolutely love Fulton-Botany. My little girl started swimming lessons somewhere else (won't name and shame) and went backwards very quickly, losing her confidence and barely doing more than playing in the pool.Since starting at Fulton she has gained confidence in the water and just loves her teachers. Communication from their team is great and my kids and I always feel extremely welcome and valued. Because of my amazing experience I had my 12-year-old start lessons too and she loves it just as much.

I approached Fulton's because they were in the recommended list" for disability inclusion classes from Autism NZ. They were very unhelpful when I tried to waitlist my special needs daughter for private lessons. Strung me along for several months offering false hope then in the end just fobbed me off completely (no offer for waitlist or anything at all). Unwilling to accomodate and poor communication. I'm medical and work with many families with special needs children and would definitely not be recommending this place. Please take your name off the disability inclusion classes if you are so unwilling to accomodate."

Excellent swim school with brilliant instructors. At Fulton, my son has progressed more in one month than he did in 3 terms at his previous swim school. Instructors are genuinely interested in kids swimming development and this is evident from the way they are able to mix up their teaching style based on individual needs. The flexibility with lesson changes/absences is also very much appreciated and easily managed through the app. A godsend for busy parents!

A great swim school with friendly staff. My daughter just turned 6 and has been coming here since she was 18 months old. The pool and surrounds have been renovated over the years, so the facility is much nicer now than it used to be. The teachers are personable and keep enough pressure on the students to keep them engaged and help their progress. Wish I would have been told about the recent fee increases as I had no idea, so maybe communication needs to be better about those sort of things. Highly recommended.

Amazing teachers , warm welcome, always enthusiastic & encouraging especially Annie, who is currently taking my sons baby classes on Wednesdays.
