Congratulations to our amazing adult women learn-to-swim graduates!
Over the past 8 weeks, these incredible women showed up, challenged themselves, and improved their swimming skills week after week. From building confidence in the water to swimming full 25 and even 50-metre lengths of the pool, their progress has been nothing short of inspiring!
This program is about more than just swimming—it`s about courage, resilience, and community. We are so proud of every participant for their hard work and determination.
Thank you to our instructors from Shellharbour City Council and everyone who supported this program. Together, we’re creating safe and empowering spaces for women to thrive. 💙
