Frequently asked questions - the Meander
Swimming lessons for children
When do swim lesson A groups start?
This depends on the flow of the current swimming groups. Each child progresses at his or her own pace. It is therefore not possible to tell far in advance when a new group will start. As soon as your child can start swimming lessons, we will contact you.
How can I register my child?
- You can register your child in 2 ways:
- Via the webshop.
- At the front desk in the Meander.
Please note: You must first pay the registration fee to complete registration.
Can parents come into the locker rooms with you?
- Yes, parents, siblings are allowed to come along. Only during diploma swimming, only 1 parent may accompany you to the locker room. A staff member will tell you which locker room you may go to.
- Don't leave clothes lying around, but put them in a (plastic) bag. Hang it on the clothes hook. This is in connection with cleaning in between.
Swim Pass
How do I get a swimming pass?
- Swimming lessons: You will receive the swimming pass on the introduction evening or before the start of the first swimming lesson. You pay a deposit of €5 per swimming pass.

Can I have multiple children swim via the same pass?
