The aim of the group is to build on the skills learned, work on technique, learn new strokes and improve swim fitness. Senior Swimming Group When the intermediate swimmers are ready to move up they can join the Senior Swimming Group in the main pool. The seniors work to perfect their technique, swim fitness and endurance. Lifesaving and Water Safety Lifesaving and Water Safety skills are included as part of each swimming session. This ensures the skills are repeated and practiced often so that they can be used when most needed. Adult Swim Fitness One to two lanes are available every Thursday, so parents have no excuse to not exercise! It’s a great opportunity to work on your own fitness.
