Celebrating Trev’s Turtle Club & the End of an Era!

Join us for a fun-filled day as we celebrate Trev’s Turtle Club, our wonderful Learn to Swim families, and the final swims at Centenary Aquatic Centre. ❤️

Centenary Pool has been part of Brisbane’s story since opening in 1959. For generations, it has been a place for learning to swim, school days, family memories, diving, friendships and countless summer days. Now, as this iconic heritage-listed pool prepares to close for its next chapter and the transformation towards the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games, we want to take a moment to celebrate its incredible legacy. 🏊‍♀️✨

So come along, make some memories and enjoy one last splash with us!

💙 Every ending creates a new beginning.

As we prepare to farewell lessons at Centenary, we're not saying goodbye to its legacy.
We're carrying it forward.

The site will become the future National Aquatic Centre, helping inspire the next generation of Australian swimmers and creating a lasting legacy for Brisbane long after the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games.

For our Rackley Swimming families, the journey continues too.

We're working behind the scenes on an exciting new nearby location, with our goal of keeping families together, teachers together and lessons continuing with as little disruption as possible.

Because while buildings may change...
The people, memories and love of swimming are what truly make a place special. 💙

📸 Then. Now. Forever.

The faces may have changed...
The swimsuits certainly have...
But one thing has always stayed the same.

For almost seven decades, families have come to Centenary to learn one of life's most important skills.

Confidence.
Water safety.
Friendship.
Achievement.

Thousands of children have taken their very first strokes right here.

Thank you to every family, teacher, coach and swimmer who has helped make this place so special.
Your stories are part of Centenary's history forever.

🏊 Every champion starts somewhere.

For decades, Centenary has been one of Queensland's great swimming homes.

Thousands of children learned their first freestyle here.
State and national athletes trained here.
Olympians walked these pool decks.
Families spent weekends cheering from the grandstand.

Long before elite facilities existed across Queensland, Centenary was Brisbane's premier competition venue, inspiring generations to chase their dreams in the water.

Today, that legacy lives on through every child learning to swim with confidence.

💙 Every lesson writes the next chapter.
