If more sessions are required by teachers, Govt. schools may trade other year levels access to programs or pay the “Swimming/Aquatic unit” the cost of instructors. As of Term 1 2020, “User Pays” rate is $61 Govt. school and $69 Non Govt. School/User Pays. Non Govt. Schools can access aquatics via User Pays System which can be quoted by the I/C.
