Swimming schools

In Espoo, swimming lessons are given in primary schools as part of physical education. Swimming schools are held by swimming societies, associations and companies.

In Espoo, pre-primary and primary school pupils attend swimming lessons as part of the school education. The goal is to achieve skills needed to swim for 200 metres.

These lessons are held every school year, and the participating groups range from pre-primary school pupils to fourth graders. We also offer swimming technique teaching to children who cannot swim.

The children participate in swimming lessons together with their class on weekdays during the school days. Swimming lessons are part of the school curriculum.

The lessons are given by Fitpit instructors and the City of Espoo’s sports instructors.
