Ace lesson dates, times and pricing
At Ace, we follow the New Zealand primary school 4-term system. This gives families the flexibility to either take a short break during the holidays or continue learning with our popular holiday block courses.
During term time, swimmers attend one lesson per week, with each term typically running for 10 weeks. If a scheduled lesson falls on a public holiday, that is reflected in your term fees at the start of the term
