SUPERHERO SAFETY WEEK A FLYING SUCCESS

10/12/2023

For one week only, BlueFit Swimming transformed all of our aquatic centres into superhero training grounds. Throughout the week, our swimming instructors educated students on all things water safety with a specific water safety lesson plan. This includes educating students the following:

  • Identifying risks in an aquatic environment
  • Learning how to minimise these risks
  • Practising our recovery positions and procedures
  • Completing safe reach rescues and tows

We are thrilled to report that all our superheroes and their sidekicks were successful in maintaining a safe and happy environment.

With summer just around the corner, there’s never been a better time to ensure your children are ‘swim safe summer’ ready. Find out more about our BlueFit Swimming program here.

A special message from BlueFit Swimming General Manager, Michele:

“BlueFit Swimming had a blast with all our students in November during safety week. Dressing up to acknowledge our summer superheroes and to share some water safety tips with our younger students to help keep our local communities safe. If we have been able to provide some safety & rescue strategies that our students can utilise to help prevent an accident or assist in an emergency we believe we have made a difference. Building our Summer Super Heroes!”

Check out some of our little sidekicks below in their best dressed superhero costumes!

Redevelopment of BlueFit Swimming – Bankstown

Construction work is now underway to upgrade our Swim School in Bankstown to create a modern, best in class new swim school for our families. We understand that your children are likely to be missing their weekly lessons at Bankstown and our team can’t wait to welcome you back!

Our new swim school remains under construction with demolition works recently completed. Construction of our upgraded pool, plant room and amenities have commenced and we are looking forward to announcing an opening date in mid-2024!

Our lessons at Bankstown will leverage over 30 years of knowledge and experience in teaching babies, children and adults to learn to swim. We will run infants swimming lessons from 6 months old, children’s learn to swim lessons and adult swimming lessons.

We understand that securing a spot at a quality swim school can be quite challenging these days. That’s why we want to reassure you that your existing day and time slot at our Bankstown location, as of the time of closure, is securely reserved for you upon our reopening in mid-2024! Your loyalty and trust mean the world to us, and we’re committed to making your return to our swim school a seamless and enjoyable experience.

We also wanted to share with you some exclusive artist impressions of the new and improved BlueFit Swimming Bankstown.
