Kids Only Class
Kids Only Class (ages 8–15)
Our Kids Only classes are all about building water confidence, having fun in the ocean, and sharing the experience with other like-minded kids. They’re designed for a wide range of abilities, from first-timers through to kids who’ve had a go before and want to keep progressing at their own pace.
Sessions focus on safety, confidence and enjoyment, with instructors providing guidance and encouragement. The aim is for kids to feel comfortable in the water, catch a few waves, and come away smiling and excited to get back out there again.
We keep group sizes small so everyone feels supported and included.
Bookings close 4 hours prior to the class start time. For last-minute bookings, please get in touch so we can confirm conditions are suitable. A minimum of three participants is required for the class to go ahead. If minimum numbers are not met, the class will be rescheduled or a full refund provided.
For kids under 8, we require a parent to be in the water to assist and prior arrangement must be made by emailing getsalty@saltysurfschool.com
We like to get you in the water quickly so if you are running late please call ahead so that the other participants do not have to wait.
For bookings made on the day of the class, you must text us on 0475 910 032 to confirm the meeting location of the class.

Salty Surf School operates surf lessons in most weather conditions, including rain, provided conditions are safe to do so. Lessons will only be cancelled or rescheduled if conditions are deemed unsafe or unsuitable for quality instruction, including but not limited to excessively large surf, completely flat conditions, strong winds, or lightning.
If Salty Surf School cancels or changes the time of a lesson due to surf or weather conditions, participants will be offered a credit to use toward a future lesson. If the rescheduled time is not suitable, a refund may be issued at the discretion of Salty Surf School.
Once a booking is made, that place cannot always be filled if cancelled. For this reason, the following cancellation terms apply.
Cancellations made more than 72 hours prior to the scheduled lesson may be eligible for a refund at the discretion of Salty Surf School. Where a refund is approved, a $30 administration fee will be deducted, along with any non-refundable booking platform fees or card processing fees incurred.
Cancellations made between 72 hours and 24 hours prior to the scheduled lesson are not eligible for a refund. A credit will be issued for use toward a future lesson.
Cancellations made within 24 hours of the scheduled lesson time, or failure to attend, will result in the full lesson fee being forfeited. No refund or credit will be provided.
All cancellation and rescheduling requests must be submitted in writing by emailing getsalty@saltysurfschool.com.
Credits are not redeemable for cash and may be subject to expiry.
Nothing in this policy is intended to exclude, restrict, or modify any rights or remedies available under the Australian Consumer Law.
