Be water safe this summer and enrol in swimming classes

Secure your swimming  for term 4 with a PARC Swim Start in-water assessment  

Learning to swim is not just a skill; it’s a life-enhancing experience. Our PARC Swim lessons focus on providing your child with the necessary skills and confidence to navigate various aquatic environments safely. Whether it’s the pool, beach, river, or lake, PARC Swim’s progression plan equips your child to be a competent and secure swimmer – and develop a life-long love of water. 

PARC Swim membership benefits 

Included in our PARC Swim membership, students have unlimited access to PARC and PINES outside of their weekly swimming lesson for play and practice. Our PARC Swim team provides a structured program that groups by age and skill, and we complete assessments each term to assist development and progression. Students will also be offered make-up classes  from Monday 7 October, if they are unwell or unable to attend, so that they don’t miss out on important lessons.  

Book in for a PARC Swim Start in-water assessment 

To ensure a great start to your swimming lessons experience with us, we offer complimentary PARC Swim Start in-water assessments. During these sessions we will assess your (or your child’s) skills in the water and place you in the right level for your age and skills. You will also get to meet a few of the PARC Swim Team and get to experience the facility for yourself. 

Speak to our friendly team in Centre or email membership.parc@peninsulaleisure.com.au to book your session. We can’t wait to welcome you as a member of PARC Swim!

Did you know Dry Needling/Accupuncture is available from the Compass Allied Health team, located in our Allied Health Suites

Dry needling is a technique where a very fine needle is gently inserted into tight or painful muscles to release “knots” (trigger points). These tight spots can cause pain, stiffness, and reduced movement.

The goal? It help muscles relax, move better, and feel less painful.

Who can benefit?
• Athletes & active people
• Anyone with tight or stiff muscles
• Desk-related neck or back pain
• Headaches, sciatica, jaw pain (TMJ), or joint issues

Curious if dry needling is right for you? Get in touch with Compass Allied Health to book an initial consult with Jack (Giac).

⭐️ Swimming for a cause: Meet Clinton Hosie ⭐️

This February, PARC Aquatic Access member Clinton Hosie is taking on a new challenge – swimming 14km to raise funds for the Starlight Children’s Foundation as part of their Super Swim.

Every minute of every day, a child in Australia is admitted to hospital. Clinton is diving in to help bring joy, laughter, and comfort to sick kids when they need it most.

We love seeing you at PARC putting in the laps, Clinton – your dedication in and out of the pool is inspiring.

Good luck, have fun, and thank you for swimming for such an important cause!

Still buzzing from the Waterfront Festival! 🎡

What an absolutely incredible event! A massive congratulations to our Frankston Skatepark team for pulling off such an massive activation. It was fantastic to see so many local riders on the half pipe, and seeing our community rally around them and enjoying the mini skate lessons!

Rotary Peninsula 2.0`s annual Duck Derby was full of fun and chaos! It was so much fun cheering on our very own duck, Percy and Hydro, to the finish line.

Thank you so much @waterfrontfest for having us! We can’t wait for next year!
