PARC Swim places available – book your child’s spot for term 4!

New classes added to our PARC Swim lesson timetable! Secure your place for Term 4 now.  

 Thanks to our STAR (Swim Teacher Active Recruitment) Program, we have 15 new Swim Teachers ready to hit the water in term 4, which means we are adding nearly 70 new classes to the program for Term 4!

Our STAR Program is a new Peninsula Leisure initiative that sees us cover the cost of our new teachers’ qualifications, training and in water teacher training hours, meaning we are attracting amazing, local swim teachers to our PARC Family!  

How to sign up? 

  1. Please attend one of our allocated sign up sessions in Centre (dates below, first in best choice of class). Location: PARC foyer:

4. When your booking is complete, you will receive a PARC Swim member’s wrist band (access to centre), a car park permit, and free swim bag. 

Summer is around the corner so there is no better time than to equip your child with vital water safety skills and build their lifelong love of water.  

 We can’t wait to welcome more students to the program, and live our vision that ‘every child in Frankston can swim’.

How you can get your 30-20-2 at PARC 💪

Our theme for this year is 30 or 20 plus 2, a simple formula to help you move more and reach the National Physical Activity Guidelines.

Everyone’s fitness journey is different, and at PARC there are so many different ways you can achieve 30-20-2.

➡️ Moderate activity: enjoy a walk on the treadmill, try a Tai Chi or Yoga Class, or jump into the pool for some gentle lap swimming.

➡️ Vigorous activity: Join a HIIT class, try an interval session on the treadmill or bike, or get moving with Zumba.

➡️ Strength session: Complete a body weight workout, enjoy weight lifting or try a Reformer Strength class.

These are just a few fantastic options that you can choose from at PARC. This year we want to support you moving in a way that suits you. Chat to one of our friendly gym floor team members or trainers to see how you can get your 30-20-2.
