SYDNEY SKATE SCHOOL
What is Skate School?
Skate School is our learn-to-skate program which caters for skaters from 3 yrs to Adults. The program is designed to be a fun way to learn the basics of skating. Skaters are put into classes with others skaters of equal ability, of up to 10 people per coach. Lessons go for half an hour, then you have time to practice with your friends.
Skate School is a great way to learn to skate in preparation for
Figure Skating lessons, Hockey classes, Speed Skating, or just
to show-off to your friends in public sessions!
It could be your pathway to the Winter Olympics.
When is Skate School?
Skate School is run during the School term, on Monday and Thursday afternoons from 4pm, and Saturday mornings from 8:30am.
- Pick up a brochure at the ice arena.
