FAST Aquatic Centre

❄️ Winter swims are fun — but staying warm afterwards is just as important! 🏊‍♂️🔥

Make sure your little swimmers rug up before and after lessons with warm jackets, hoodies, beanies, and comfy track pants. Keeping warm helps prevent chills and keeps everyone happy and healthy through the colder months. 💙

Don’t forget:
✅ Towel or robe
✅ Warm change of clothes
✅ Beanie & socks
✅ Hot shower after swimming

We’re proud of our swimmers for showing up and making a splash all winter long! 🌊

A huge thank you to SWIM Coaches & Teachers Australia for delivering another fantastic Professional Development session! 🙌

We’re proud to have had 6 of our staff members in attendance, continuing to learn, grow, and develop their skills to provide the best possible experience for our swimmers and families 🏊‍♂️📚

Investing in our team means investing in our swimmers, and we’re excited to bring new ideas and knowledge back to the pool!

⚡ FLASH FROM THE PAST ⚡

An Aquatic staff photo from around 2016-ish! 📸
How many staff members do you recognise?

It just goes to show — when you work at Fairholme Aquatics, you become family ❤️

One familiar face in this photo is Jordan Campbell, and this week we are excited to welcome him home as our Development Swim Coach!

Jordan will be leading our Fitness 1, Target and Development Squads, and we can’t wait for our swimmers to benefit from his passion, experience and energy back on pool deck.

Welcome back, Jordan! 🏊‍♂️

Enjoy the long weekend and we’ll see you back in the pool soon! 💙🏊‍♂️

From coaching across Queensland to racing alongside his sons, his journey is truly inspiring (even if they beat him now! 😄)

We’re lucky to have you, Don! 🙌
