SWELL Palmerston

Our lifeguards are trained to supervise the pool and respond in emergencies, but parents and carers play the most important role in keeping children safe around water.

When visiting our venue, stay close, stay engaged, and keep your focus on children in and around the water, at all times. By working together, we can help create a safer and more enjoyable aquatic experience for everyone.

Your supervision makes all the difference. Learn more via the Aquatic Supervision page on our website.

We have something very fun coming to SWELL in October!

Join us on 24th October at 5pm for AQUA ZUMBA! Marlee will be taking us through an awesome session of dancing, in the water. An incredible resistance-based workout, set to Latin inspired music. Come and shake it off!

Tickets are limited and can be purchased at this link. Get in quick for this one!

Hydrotherapy is a vital treatment option for numerous ailments. From warm water soothing to the hydrostatic pressure in deep water, being in the water is magic for our bodies.

Not many people have gone through ailments like Laurie. With a laundry list of illnesses that should’ve taken him years ago, he is still here and still floating. We love seeing Laurie at SWELL multiple times a week and we love providing a free space for people to access this life changing therapy.

Defying the odds: Laurie’s resilience at SWELL Palmerston For over four decades, regular SWELL Palmerston member Laurie has faced a series of health challenges that would have stopped many people in their tracks. Diagnosed with muscular dystrophy at just 20 years old, Laurie was told he would likely be using a wheelchair by 40 and would not live beyond 50....

It's tomorrow!!

We are stocked up on exercises to get you working but also stocked up on treats to enjoy afterwards.

Be here tomorrow!

Senior's Open Day is NEXT WEEK and we are excited. See below the schedule of events.

Come for all or come for some, we want to see you there!

👉11am Senior Circuit. This will take place in our gym room and will incorporate light weights and body weight. Focus on strength and muscle!

👉12pm Aqua Aerobics. Taking place in our warm water pool, feel all the impact leave your body while still getting a good workout in. Water immersion, especially warm water, is great for pain relief.

👉12.45pm Stretch and Release. Done in the warm water, engage Ai Chi (aquatic Tai Chi) and relaxing stretches.

👉1.15pm Afternoon Tea. This is where we undo all the exercise benefits by having some treats and coffee. This will be a good vocal chords exercise!

Entry is FREE for everything, and we would love to see you here on 11am on 20th August 2026.

It is a sad week for us at SWELL, as we spend our last few days with our beloved OJ before he heads back home to Sri Lanka 💔

Many children, and adults, in Palmerston and surrounds have had the pleasure of learning to swim from OJ. He has been a constant at SWELL since it was reopened at the end of 2023, and he is going to be very, VERY missed.

Please join us in wishing OJ the best of luck as he goes back home to Sri Lanka to teach even more kids the benefits of swimming and water safety! We ❤️ you.
