Carers Week at PARC

Recognise and celebrate carers across Australia  

We want to say thank you to our incredible community of carers.  

National Carers Week is an opportunity to raise community awareness among all Australians about the diversity of carers and their caring roles. Every day we see carers walk through our doors, helping to support people from all walks of life.  

We appreciate the important work these people do and are happy to be a part of National Carers Week this year. Carers may be a partner, family member, friend or neighbour who assist someone who needs additional support.  

 
To acknowledge the important work they do in our community, we want to say thank you to carers with free entry to PARC. Carers can enjoy free access to our Centre, including our Health Club and all aquatic areas on Friday 20 October. 

 Simply attend PARC on the day and we’ll sort the rest! 

Note: Offer is valid for 1 free entry. Details are captured upon arrival.

This week, our PARC Swim team have organised some Commonwealth Games themed fun, to celebrate our Aussie athletes, who are absolutely dominating this year! 🥇

To celebrate, our PARC Swim teachers will include a small segment in this week’s lessons, using our snakes and ladders game, aligning a swimming activity with a participating sporting event 🏊🏃

Make sure to check out our activity table, and show support for Australia, or any other participating country by wearing their colours to your lesson this week! 
Have you heard of Habit Stacking? 🤔

It's a great way to add movement into your day by pairing small exercises with habits you already do - helping you be active and achieve 30-20-2, even when life is busy!

You can incorporate simple exercises into your daily task, such as:
- Squats while the kettle boils - turn waiting time into movement time.
- Calf raises while brushing your teeth - two minutes of strength, twice a day.
- Lunges down the hallway - every trip becomes a mini workout.
- Marching on the spot while folding laundry- complete some of your vigorous or moderate exercise every trip.
- Glute squeezes while sitting at your desk - perfect for busy workdays.

Remember, all movement counts 🙌

We go wherever the wind takes us, and it always leads us back here 🩵
