It's super easy to join - just register your school and encourage your community to participate. Make a splash for your school with City of Sydney pools!

City Of Sydney Pools Swim + Gym for Your School 2025: $5K To Be Won

Swim + Gym for Your School 2025 is a simple, six-week competition that rewards local schools and encourages healthy habits across the community - and your school could win a $5,000 program credit to boost your sport, swimming, or wellbeing initiatives.

Between Monday 21 July and Sunday 31 August 2025, visitors to any City of Sydney Leisure Centre can scan a QR code after their swim or gym session to nominate a participating school.

Each scan = points for that school. The more people who take part, the more points your school earns (adjusted for school size to keep it fair!).

The school with the highest score at the end of the competition takes home the $5,000 prize.

Whether you're a teacher, student, parent or carer, anyone can help support your school just by visiting and scanning!
