Active Schools Swimming | Prestonpans, Tranent & Musselburgh
We are delighted to be continuing our partnership with Tranent Amateur Swimming Club in 2025/26!
Active Schools are working in partnership with Tranent Swimming Club to offer blocks of free sessions for new members. This is a fantastic opportunity to try something new and learn some of the essential skills involved in competitive swimming before potentially progressing into joining the club.
Important note: These sessions are not swimming lessons.
Please read before booking - these intermediate sessions are an introduction to competitive swimming with Tranent Swimming Club and are not suitable for beginners or non-swimmers. Your child must be able to confidently swim continuously for a minimum of 50 metres (2 lengths) in front and back crawl before signing up to participate.
Please see below for details of the latest available classes.
Term 2 Classes will be available to book from 6pm on Monday 19th January.

Please note: the deadline for booking is 2 working days before the start of the activity block. This is to help us ensure we know participant numbers and information in advance of classes starting, and allow us time to prepare registers and share this information with coaches and activity leaders. If you would like to book after this time or after an activity block has started, please email Stewart Sands, Active Schools Coordinator directly at ssands@elcschool.org.uk to check if spaces are available.
