Cook + Phillip Park Pool

Wear It Purple Day is this Friday, and we're getting ready to wear purple with pride. 💜

This year's theme, Colours of Courage, celebrates the strength it takes to live authentically and the people who show up in support. Founded to stand with LGBTQIA+ young people facing bullying and harassment, Wear It Purple Day reminds us that everyone deserves to feel seen, valued and supported.

On Friday 28 August, wear a splash of purple to show your support. Purple sweatbands will also be available during group exercise classes for anyone who would like to get involved.

At Cook + Phillip Park Pool, everyone is welcome.

Learn more about the cause on the Wear It Purple website. 💜

Getting ready for the Sydney Marathon on 30 August? 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️ As you start tapering your training and easing back on the running, why not swap a run for a swim in our heated pool? 🏊‍♀️

It's a great way to stay active while giving your body a break from the impact of running.

💦 Keep your cardio ticking over
💦 Move and loosen tired muscles
💦 Give your joints a break
💦 Enjoy a full-body, low-impact workout
💦 Take some time to relax and reset

Your training has done the hard work — now it’s time to move smart, recover and get ready for race day! Good luck 😄

From 3 to 9 August, we’re recognising Loneliness Awareness Week.

Real connection often starts with the little moments we share every day. Whether it's a friendly smile before class or a chat afterwards, those moments help build a stronger community.

Join us on Wednesday 5 August from 12pm for a light brunch and a chance to connect, following our 11am GOLD Balance class.

Come for the class, stay for the catch up and leave feeling a little more connected than when you walked in 💛

Together, our actions can save lives. 💙
