At what age can I enroll my child in EAAS?
You can start enrolling in baby swimming once you have had all your vaccinations from the age of 6 months.
What equipment do you need for your swimming lesson?
Swimming lessons must include a swimsuit (women) or tight-fitting swimming trunks without pockets (men), a class-colored cap (silicone/lycra) and flip-flops; babies must also wear a water-specific diaper under their swimsuit.
In addition to the class material, you should also bring a towel and toiletries to take a shower at the end of the class.
Can I try a class before signing up for EAAS?
Experimenting with lessons is only possible at specific times of the school year, such as family or friend's week, or through the Toca a Nadar project.
What is the EAAS multidisciplinary teaching model?
It is a disruptive teaching model in terms of teaching swimming and aquatic activities, which includes an integrative and multidisciplinary approach, with an emphasis on the elementary and basic movements of pure swimming, artistic swimming, water polo and aquatic safety.
This teaching model allows the practitioner to develop a general motor base, as well as aquatic motor skills that underpin and facilitate the learning and development of more specific skills.
What do I need to do to sign up for EAAS?
To enroll in EAAS, all students from the age of 3 need to undergo a level assessment, scheduled at the secretariat/reception and carried out by specific technicians who assess technical skills according to age, levels and pedagogical objectives.
Requires an appointment (cost €2).
Once the assessment has been carried out, the following documents must be submitted to the secretariat:
What times are available?
The timetables can be found on our website (link), in the lobby of both facilities and you can also request information from the reception/secretariat.
How much do the lessons cost?
The price of lessons is set according to EAAS price list season 2024/ 25
Will the teacher who carries out the assessment be the teacher of the student assessed for the EAAS?
No, the teacher who carries out the assessment may or may not be the teacher of the student being assessed.
Do I need to bring clinical documents for the therapeutic assessment?
For a correct therapeutic assessment, the patient should bring with them any tests they have had carried out and clinical reports that best clarify their condition.
How do I pay my tuition fees?
Tuition fees can be paid up to the 11th day of the month in question, at the secretariat/reception or by bank transfer (send proof to the following email address secretaria.alunos@viversantarem.pt) ou através de referência multibanco que é enviada nos últimos dias do mês anterior à mensalidade de referência.
If payment is made outside this period:
When I can't make it to class, can I come at another time to make up the lesson?
No, a student's registration is for a set time chosen at the time of registration, thus ensuring that they are insured against all risks.
Can I change my timetable/class and/or facility at any time during the sporting year?
Yes, as long as there are vacancies in the classes you want to move to.
