The Sirens swim school and waterpolo nursery are merging to become the Sirens Waterpolo and Swimming Nursery. This move is aimed at providing a holistic progressive development to all swimmers at Sirens.

The swimming programmes have been adapted to suit the needs of children. The Sirens waterpolo and swimming nursery is working towards forming a year-round competitive swim team run by a number of volunteers with the support and contribution of parents and the community.

Sirens have also established a partnership with Aqua Kidz who are also becoming part of the nursery.

Sirens head coach Davina Mangion is confident that this merger, which comes into effect on July 1, will significantly raise the level of training and competition.
