Smaller Centres Save on Swimming Lessons

I found a small swim centre to take my child to swimming lessons rather than an aquatic centre. There was a $5 a week saving in the cost of the lesson. I also save further by paying by the week rather than paying for the whole term. If I can't make the lesson for the week there is an option to pay a lesser fee (1/3 of the price) or I can elect to do a make up lesson. I always just pay the lesser fee as the only reason that I miss a lesson is if my child is sick or if we are doing something else exciting. In both cases he doesn't realise that he has missed swimming for the week although if we are going to do something exciting that may require us not going to swimming (due to time constraints) I always give him the option.
