The second annual Building Healthier Swim Schools Seminar Series, fully funded by Australian Unity, was recently completed in Brisbane.  This year an outside-of-industry speaker related concepts and ideas to the Swim School operators on recruiting and retaining staff. 

The panellists, Swim Schoolers, stole some of the limelight from the keynote.  In Brisbane, John Wallace Swim School's Vicki Wallace and Dolphin's Kerry Sharp helped formed the panel.  In Sydney, it was Cook and Phillips's Tracey Ayton and Tony Shaw Swim School's Lisa Yates.

Star power also came in the form of Special Guest interviewees, masterfully handled by MC Hayley Lewis, Australian Unity Learn to Swim Ambassador.   Olympians Shayne Reece (Melbourne) and Kenrick Monk (Brisbane) - pictured here, and international Coach Jim Fowlie (Sydney) gave wonderful insights into what it takes to strive for excellence.
