PARC partnering with AUSTSWIM and Allianz

We are very pleased to be a participating facility in the Allianz Australia Swim Club program, as one of three Victorian centres. This program has been designed in partnership with AUSTSWIM and Masters Swimming Australia to offer a free 8 week learn-to-swim program, specifically designed for adults.

This is a very exciting opportunity for Peninsula Leisure and PARC Swim to instil a love of water and equip our community with the skills they need to be safer when enjoying all aquatic environments.

PARC Swim manager, Leah Andrews, is delighted by the opportunity and excited for her team to help make a splash!

PARC is very proud to be a participating facility in the Allianz Swim Club. To be able to provide a free swimming program, that features a social connection for adults in our community who have very low swimming ability is a fantastic initiative, especially leading into summer,” said Leah. 

“The hope is by the end of the program we will have confident and importantly, much safer adults who will be able to enjoy water activities with their family and friends.”  

We are thrilled to be able to support our community learn fundamental swimming and water safety skills, preparing them for summer and years to come.

Bright bathers = safer swimmers 🌈🩳 

Our PARC Swim team demonstrate that when it comes to swimwear for little ones, the right colour can matter! 

🟡 Bright colours like neon orange, pink, yellow or lime green can be easier to spot. 
🔵 While some dark or pale colours and may disappear in busy pools or in open water. 

As we enter the height of Summer, and more of us in and around water, help your children stand out for all the right reasons! 

Go bright, go bold, and stay safer around water!
