At the Hoornse Vaart swimming pool in Alkmaar, we offer a range of options for schools. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Swimming is cool: WaterWijs with school!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Swimming is fun, healthy and a skill that children will benefit from for the rest of their lives. That is why Alkmaar Sport offers with <a href=\"https:\/\/hoornsevaart.nl\/en\/swimming-is-cool\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"7656\">Swimming is cool<\/a> a versatile swimming programme for pupils in years 5, 6, 7 and 8.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With five different water themes, pupils discover a different side of swimming and moving in the water:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/hoornsevaart.nl\/en\/save-your-boyfriend\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"5674\">Save Your Boyfriend<\/a><\/strong>teach yourself and someone else how to save lives<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/hoornsevaart.nl\/en\/naval-heroes\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"8537\">Naval heroes<\/a><\/strong>discover currents, rip currents and snorkelling<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/hoornsevaart.nl\/en\/swimming\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"8545\">Dive into swimming<\/a><\/strong>try water polo, competitive swimming and more<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/hoornsevaart.nl\/en\/athletic-skills-model\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"8528\">Athletic Skills Model<\/a><\/strong>get stronger and more agile in and around the water<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/hoornsevaart.nl\/en\/public-swim-xl\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"8548\">XL General Swimming<\/a><\/strong>recreational swimming with just that little bit extra<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Schools can choose one or more themes. Even better: come back every school year for a new theme. This way, pupils continue to gain new skills and experiences, and can experience all aspects of Swim is cool during their primary school years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Recreational splashing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Alongside Save your Little Friend, we also offer <a href=\"https:\/\/hoornsevaart.nl\/en\/activities\/recreational-splashing\/\">recreational swimming<\/a> for schools. During this time, the children can enjoy recreational swimming and play in the water, whether or not in combination with <a href=\"https:\/\/hoornsevaart.nl\/en\/activities\/survival-swimming\/\">survival swimming<\/a> or a <a href=\"https:\/\/hoornsevaart.nl\/en\/activities\/snorkelling\/\">snorkel clinic<\/a>. During the survival swimming course, the children learn various survival techniques in the water, whilst the snorkelling clinic gives them the chance to explore the underwater world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Outdoor Triathlon<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For teachers looking for the perfect sports day for their pupils, we offer, in partnership with Outdoorpark Alkmaar, a fully organised <a href=\"https:\/\/hoornsevaart.nl\/en\/outdoor-triathlon\/\">Outdoor Triathlon<\/a> on at the Hoornse Vaart sports complex. Over a time span of approximately 3 hours, multiple classes can start this challenging activity in different time slots.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tailor-made offer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Schools can also contact the Hoornse Vaart swimming pool in Alkmaar for a bespoke programme. Examples include the <a href=\"https:\/\/hoornsevaart.nl\/en\/design-and-technology-lessons\/\">Star Project <\/a>or the <a href=\"https:\/\/hoornsevaart.nl\/en\/design-and-technology-lessons\/\">Girls' Day<\/a>.
