Save our Glen Dhu Pool
Dear Minister Palmer,
13 Primary Schools utilise this pool for their learn-to-swim program, which equates to approximately 5,000 students per year.
Swim training is essential for all young Australians, particularly those without previous access to swim training.
Keep your word and upgrade the Glen Dhu pool.
Regards,
Why is this important?
13 Primary Schools utilise this pool for their learn-to-swim program, which equates to approximately 5,000 students per year. This means significant costs are now being put on schools to access pool time from Private Schools.
Swim training is essential for all young Australians, particularly those without previous access to swim training.
Olympic medalist and swimming coach Peter Tonkin OAM has said every swim school in Launceston had a waiting list and the Glen Dhu pool had a shallower depth of 0.9 metres, making it safer to learn in.
The message is clear, teaching children how to swim saves lives.

Tell Minister Jo Palmer the Liberals should keep their word and upgrade the Glen Dhu pool.
