Go for gold these school holidays!

On your marks, get set, go!! Who wants to join PARC Games? As we gear up for the Commonwealth Games in July, PARC is the place to be these winter school holidays!

Join Hydro’s Commonwealth Games team and become a PARC Champion while enjoying our fun activities which include:

– Our award winning Aquatic Playground

– Face painting and balloon entertainment (check Centre calendar for days!)

– The green Constrictor waterslide 11am – 3pm daily

– PARC Games baton relay Scavenger Hunt

-Prizes and giveaways

Our waterslides will run from 11am-3pm on weekdays these school holidays, and all activities are included in the entry free.

Unfortunately, our Splashtown obstacle course isn’t on the PARC Games circuit this round, as we work to rest and recover our team over the winter months. You will notice our waterslide hours are also 11am – 3pm over the holidays, in order to rebuild our team of Lifeguards who have been impacted by staff shortages and COVID isolations.

So, grab your team colours and make your way to warm PARC these holidays for some Commonwealth Games themed fun!!

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 🙌

For more information about 30-20-2, or helpful resources and workouts to get you moving, head to our Digital Hub.
We go wherever the wind takes us, and it always leads us back here 🩵
