Dear Parents
Diving lessons at the Quays:
Thank you for your interest in diving at the Quays. If your child is aged 6 – 13 years, can swim at least
25m unaided, is confident in deep water and happy to swim without goggles, then he/she is eligible to
apply for diving lessons.
All children start in Beginners’ lessons, unless they have already passed any of the diving specific ASA
levels with another appropriate establishment. This is to ensure that they are correctly taught the
fundamental skills which will allow them to progress safely onto the more difficult moves.
If you are interested in taking up the opportunity of learning with us, please fill in the booking form and
return with your payment to the Quays. Alternately, if you are able to pay by card, you can ring reception
and make your booking over the phone.
