Makaton Monday 💙

On Monday our Aquarius staff took part in makaton training led by Paul. We want our swimschool to be as inclusive as possible which is why we take time to learn different ways to communicate with our swimmers 👍

🚔👮🏻‍♀️ Emily is getting locked up! 👮🏻‍♀️🚔

Tomorrow, Thursday 5th March, Emily will be spending the day behind bars for one very serious offence… excessive use of the word POWER! 💪⚡

You might recognise Emily – she’s Lisa’s third daughter and often steps in to cover when needed. Now it’s our turn to step in for her!

We need your help to bail her out! All bail money raised will go directly to North Devon Hospice 💙
Every donation, big or small, will help make a difference while securing her early release. Let’s get her out of jail and support an incredible cause at the same time! 🙌

Three years ago, our sister company SMART Swim Centre took on ownership of South Molton Pool – and what an incredible journey it’s been!

From day one, their vision, passion and commitment have transformed the pool into the thriving, successful community hub it is today. We couldn’t be prouder of everything they’ve achieved and the amazing team behind it. 💙

A huge thank you to everyone who has supported them along the way – staff, swimmers, families, volunteers and the wider community. You’ve all played a part in this success story!

And don’t forget…
🌊 All of our swimmers aged under 16 get FREE public swim when accompanied by a paying adult! 🌊

It’s our way of encouraging even more time in the water, building confidence, and keeping our young swimmers active outside of lessons.

Three years ago today, we took on ownership of South Molton Pool.
It was such a big secret to keep at the time – but so worth it!

We couldn’t be prouder of what has been achieved since then. Together, we’ve transformed this pool into the thriving, successful centre it is today.

Thank you to every single person who has supported us, believed in us, swum with us, trained with us, volunteered with us, and championed us along the way.

A special thank you to all our past and present staff – your hard work, passion and commitment are what make this place so special. 💙

Here’s to the next chapter!
