Testimonials
"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 |

It is with regret and disappointment that we have heard only today (5th Jan) that the pool at Thorpe St Andrew School is still closed. We can only apologise for the inconvenience that this has caused once more and the school have also extended their apologies. The pool closure could be for one or a number of weeks. We will keep you informed of the progress as we have it.

It is with deep regret that we have to inform you of the sad passing of Colleen Millar.
Colleen was associated with Norwich Penguins for many years, first as a swimmer and then as a Teacher and Coach, moving on to manage Penguins Teaching Section and serve on the Club’s Management Committee. A qualified ASA Tutor, Colleen was instrumental in teaching many of our swimmers to teach, some of whom still teach to this day for the Club and was also heavily involved in holding lifesaving courses delivering many rescue tests for the Club’s coaches and teachers over the years. Colleen leaves behind husband Bob, daughter Alison and grand daughter Amelia, our thoughts are with them at this sad time.

Many thanks indeed to all those attending, we hope you enjoyed your swimming and had a great time! It was the first time we have run a Mini Meet and a Beginners Gala simultanenously and whilst it gave us a few technical delays in getting started, all went well in the end. Special thanks to the Young Volunteers from around the county who all performed their allocated duites extremely well - we hope to see you next time!
Mini-Meet results (corrected and updated) available here. Beginners Results here. Thanks also to S14 British Record Holder Jessica-Jane Applegate for presenting the awards to the children. |
Well done to all the swimmers who competed, some great swims! It was another hot evening at the Sportspark, but it didn't deter fabulous support from the gallery.
Full results available here. |
