25.01.2022 Your kids have sacrificed a lot this year. With summer on our doorstep, don't let swimming skills be one of them. Relearning and remembering previously learnt swimming and survival skills is vital as we head into summer and enables your kids to tackle the water with a confidence that is supported by their current ability. Enrolling in learn to swim lessons is truly a lifesaving decision.... ENROL TODAY! We are recommending 2 lessons per week in our term based program or enrol in our intensive school holiday programs throughout the January period. Give us a call today. 8899 6323 #surreyparkswimming #learntoswim #watersafety #enroltoday #swimmingsaveslives

18.01.2022 Monique's tips!! This week I will be sharing one of my favourite recipes with you, a Crustless Quiche! This meal can be served for breakfast - with a side of bacon and for lunch or dinner, with a salad! The best thing about this meal is it's simplicity. Add cooked vegetables (whether this be frozen, tinned or fresh) to 6-8 eggs, with some milk, pour into a pan and pop in the oven! ... Maximum of 15 minutes prep time which is amazing for those busy families. Feel free to play around with the flavours adding in spring onions, feta and all kinds of vegetables. Remember we don’t have to spend lots of money or time in the kitchen to serve delicious and healthy foods! Recipe: Ingredients 1 1/2 cups of mushrooms, sliced 1/2 zucchini, sliced 1/2 red onion, sliced 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved 7 eggs 1 1/2 cups of milk 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg 3/4 cup of cheese Pinch of salt and pepper Parsley chopped to serve Method 1. Preheat the oven to 190 C and grease a dish with butter. 2. In a pan over medium heat, add some oil and the mushrooms. Sautee until softened and browned and transfer to the greased dish. 3. In the same skillet, heat up some more oil and add the zucchini, red onion and cherry tomatoes (or any vegetables you desire). Sautee until softened and browned and transfer to dish. 4. In a large bowl beat the eggs, milk, nutmeg, cheese, salt and pepper together and pour over the vegetable mix. 5. Place in the oven and bake until lightly browned around 30 minutes. 6.

10.01.2022 SPREAD THE WORD. WE ARE BACK !!!! We are excited to announce we have finally been given the green light by the government and the council to commence lessons on Monday the 9th November at our Blackburn Mineral Based Salt Water pool and Aqualink Box Hill . We cant wait to get back into the water. If you haven’t already booked into a lesson we would love to get your kids learning how to swim. ... With summer fast approaching we are keen to get your child remembering all those skills they have previously learnt before they take to the water with a confidence that may not be supported by their current ability being out for lessons for the most part of the year. Because of this, we highly recommend you book into two lessons a week. As students have already missed half of term 4, booking into two lessons would be the equivalent of a regular term of lessons and will fast track your child to get back to their original ability level and beyond for summer holidays. To enrol give us a call on 8899 6323. #Surreyparkswimming #learntoswim #watersafety #weareback
