WELCOME TO JUMP! SWIM SCHOOLS PORT KENNEDY
We look forward to supporting your child through their learn to
swim journey!
Following are our Membership Policies which you should read
before signing the Enrolment Form.
1. General Information
We are a private, members’ only facility, and children may only
begin lessons once membership has been accepted. A position in
a class is secured only once it is paid for in advance.
Enrolment is ongoing and you can start at any time
Your child will be placed in a class and will attend on the same
day and time each week
We do not hold places or accept part payments
Memberships and lessons are NOT transferable nor refundable
to other people including family members, and cannot be
credited unless JUMP! is at fault
Planned JUMP! closures are on all public holidays and for up
to two (2) weeks over the Christmas/New Year period. You are
not charged for these days, therefore make up lessons are not
required
If a group lesson has one (1) or two (2) students in it, JUMP!
reserves the right to consolidate that class. At least one week’s
notice will be provided of the change and we will do our best to
find a suitable alternative class
JUMP! does not guarantee teacher requests and teacher
schedules may change at any time
You may be given access to a Customer Portal which allows you
to manage your child’s enrolment. It is critical that you check
your emails for notifications regarding this
2. Membership Fee
A once-off membership fee of $45.00 per child is charged and a
membership pack provided. This fee is non-refundable and is due
and payable upon booking your child into lessons.

Lesson fees are payable in advance and only current, paid
members can attend classes. A position in a class is not held
without payment.

The fee structure is calculated on a ‘cost per lesson’ basis. Payments
are taken monthly via Direct Debit. A security deposit equivalent to
up to two (2) weeks’ lesson fees ($ 49.00) may be charged, so that
lessons are always paid in advance.

including fees for declined debits

lessons in that month

completed cancellation form is received by JUMP! at least two
(2) weeks before the end of the month. If we do not receive the

Membership Cancellations by JUMP!
We reserve the right to cancel your membership if you do not
follow the set policies or if you or your children conduct themselves
inappropriately at a JUMP! site.
8. Swim Attire
Reusable swim nappies are mandatory for hygiene reasons
as faecal incidents can result in pool closure. Any child who
requires nappies normally must wear a reusable swim nappy
for lessons
?Swimming caps are provided as part of the membership pack
to all independent swimmers. These are recommended to be
worn to ensure fewer distractions for your child and for pool
hygiene
?It is recommended that parents/carers wear a rash vest in
the water. This assists the child to gain independence through
reaching for and holding the shirt instead of the parent having
to always lift and hold the child
?No streetwear/casual clothes will be permitted in the pool e.g.
cotton t-shirts, shorts, etc.
?Swimwear (including nappies) must not be removed on pool
deck at any time

child on camera or video, however the privacy of others must also
be respected. Capturing still or video footage is conditional upon
the following:
?If you capture an image or private conversation of another child
or individual, you must have all relevant individuals (or their
parents) consent to use, publish, or broadcast images or videofootage
?Under NO circumstances are cameras or mobile phones to be
used in change room areas or showers
