The centre is hosting a free screening of Minions for children, the latest of a number of swim-in movie evenings held there.

The movie is screening from 6pm-7.30pm, with free entry for young people and children. Children under 12 will need to be accompanied by a responsible adult.

According to the Orange City Council’s Sport and Recreation Chair Jason Hamling, there’s many family-friendly activities planned at the pool over the upcoming summer holidays.

There will be inflatables in the water every Sunday from about 11am, while extra staff have been rostered on over the weekends so the dive pool can be open from 11am-4pm.

There will also be swimming race training available – where students can learn better race techniques such as turns, dive starts and finishing – in addition to intensive Learn to Swim classes.

“These classes are a great way to get the most out of swimming lessons,” Cr Hamling said.

“It’s five days a week but it’s consistent and can help children and adults learning to swim, get over the hump and make great progress.”
