Enrol in swimming lessons for term 1

Dive into water safety and enrol in swimming lessons  

Secure your spot for term 1 2025 with a PARC Swim Start in-water assessment   

Whether you are at the start of your swimming lesson journey or you’re well on your way and looking to refine your strokes, our PARC Swim membership is here to help. Our dedicated swimming teachers will ensure your child, or you as an adult learning to swim, have the skills and confidence needed to be safer, more competent swimmers.  

Book in for a PARC Swim Start in-water assessment  

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

PARC Swim membership benefits  

Included in our PARC Swim membership, students have unlimited access to PARC and PINES, our seasonal outdoor facility, outside of their weekly swimming classes for play and practise.  

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, if they are unwell or unable to attend. This ensures that the student doesn’t miss out on important lessons and skill development.   

Don’t splash about with water safety, speak to our friendly team in Centre or email membership.parc@peninsulaleisure.com.au to book your in-water session today. We can’t wait to welcome you as a member of PARC Swim!
