I just want to say how much Jenna has enjoyed swimming with Norwich Penguins, especially with Chris and has made really good progress with him. Perhaps you could pass on our thanks as I think he is an exceptional instructor. Helen, Town Close Tues.
"I would like to congratulate Penguins on the outstanding swimming lesson my children received last week. We have been to several other swimming clubs around Norwich and Penguins surpasses all of them! I was really impressed with the methodical process of the lessons, the attention to detail, and generally the no nonsense training. Cant wait for the next lesson!" Aimee Barter.
"My son, Tom, attends Weds 5pm at Heartsease and his teacher Chris has been really good. He has really good attention to detail, in particular he seems to get the kids individual needs and communicates really well with them." Jennifer, Heartsease Wed.
"Milly had her first lesson on Saturday and really enjoyed it - can't wait to go this week!" Kelly, Thorpe Saturday
"I would also like to add how much Jago enjoys swimming lessons and his confidence in water is so much better." Jane, Hethersett Tues
