The Stanway pool was purpose built by Mini Swimming for lessons and private family use.

The pool is small enough to create an intimate feel to the classes, so not noisy and echoey but large enough to be able to swim in and space out properly. Classes run 7 days a week for all levels from babies of six weeks old up to 10 year old competent swimmers. Private family hire is also available every day as well as private lessons.

Our teachers are first-rate, they all make all the children (and parents) feel comfortable in lessons and all the children love them! There is plenty of street parking on the business park and also a pushchair area out the front as well. There will be a reception there where you can buy Happy Nappies, goggles, floats etc

Location: one of the units in a block opposite the Co-op on Peartree road (near St Helena Hospice)

Private hire

You may also be interested in private hire of the pool. This is pool only, no class, equipment or teacher. Use is booked for an hour and usually in blocks of 6 weeks of the same time each week for 6 weeks. There is ad-hoc one-off sessions that are detailed on the Mini Swimming Colchester facebook page

The pool is yours to use for the hour. This time includes changing time. It is designed for a single family but if you are in a social bubble then you can join the two households. There is a maximum of 4 adults and 4 children but please note that if there is any governments rules are group size that those rules override the 4 plus 4.

Costs

A block of 6 classes is £240 for weekdays and £270 for weekends. An ad-hoc booking made via facebook is £45 for weekday and £50 for a weekend. Existing swimmers pay £40 and £45 for ad-hoc.
