SWIMMER OF THE MONTH
Each month, BlueFit Swimming recognises and celebrates one of our dedicated students as the ‘Swimmer of the Month’. As a reward the selected student is awarded with one FREE tropical flavoured Frosty Fruit!
The lucky winner of a Frosty Fruit and the title ‘Swimmer of the Month’ is Anthony.
Anthony has been awarded for his consistent improvement as he continues to strive for excellence in each lesson.
Our team would like to say an enormous congratulations to Anthony!
Towards the end of last year we opened our newest addition to the BlueFit Swimming community at Casula in Sydney’s south west.
After some delays, Casula opened its doors on Friday 28th of October and introduced its eager students and their families to the BlueFit Swimming program. The facility is located within the Crossroads Homemaker Centre, and features two indoor heated swimming pools dedicated entirely to swimming lessons. The centre is designed specifically as a quiet, distraction-free environment where students can completely focus on learning to swim safely. Within the first week of operation, Casula had an incredible 1,400 students enrolled. Since then the swim school has continued to develop and grow.
Welcome to the family, Casula!

The Australian Summer season is already reminding many families about the importance of water safety!

Royal Life Saving Chief Executive Officer, Justin Scarr is encouraging that all people are “Choosing a safe location to swim, where lifeguards are on duty is essential.

These are a few tips we would like to encourage you to implement:
