We would like to welcome you to the newest and best swimming school in the local area. Situated at Ogden Hall, the pool is designed for teaching beginners. With much warmer pool water, Ogden Otters is more than suitable for babies, juniors, seniors and those with mobility problems. Due to being a small pool we are able to provide a quiet swimming space for those with additional needs and have an inclusive policy. We believe that swimming should be safe and fun! Small groups/class sizes make it less intimidating for those children who are new to swimming right through to adults who have tried elsewhere and not succeeded. Come and learn to swim with us! Parking available. OFFICIAL OGDEN OTTERS PAGE

What the teacher says vs what the kids actually hear…

If you’ve ever watched a swimming lesson and wondered whether your little one is listening to the same instructions as everyone else… apparently not. 🤣

Our swimming teachers deserve a medal for the number of times they say “one at a time!” 🏅😂

Which one is YOUR little swimmer most guilty of? 👀

Today we said goodbye to two of our little swimmers 💙

It’s always so hard saying goodbye, especially when we’ve watched them grow, learn and make such amazing progress in the water. 🥹🏊‍♀️🏊‍♂️

They have both worked so hard during their time with us, achieved so much and made some wonderful memories along the way. We are incredibly proud of how far they have come! 🌟

We are going to miss seeing their little faces at Ogden Otters, but we wish them both lots of happiness and continued success on their swimming journey. 💦🐬

Good luck, little swimmers — keep swimming and keep shining! ⭐️💙

Love from all of us at Ogden Otters 🦦💙

💦BEHIND THE SPLASH | Submersion 💦

Going underwater doesn’t have to happen all at once!

At Ogden Otters, we introduce submersion gradually and at each child’s own pace. 🦦 From bringing their chin down to the water, to gently letting water flow over their head and face, these little steps can help children become familiar with how water feels before progressing further.

We also use a familiar cue - “[Name] … ready … go” - so your little one begins to recognise what’s coming. But most importantly, we watch them. Their reactions, body language and comfort tell us whether they’re ready to continue. 💙

There’s no rush and no need to compare - every little Otter’s journey is different.

Small steps. Positive experiences. Confident little swimmers. 💦🦦
