Spike was inspired by how well our New Zealand athletes did in and on the water at the recent Olympic Games and want to help future athletes find their love for water.
He is borrowing some pool space from his friends at Swimsation to help more swimmers in his community have access to learn to swim education by reducing the cost of lessons to one of the cheapest in Auckland – Way to go Spike!
Spike’s Community lessons will pilot at Te Atatu Swimsation for November and December. If they prove to be popular Spike will open the programme at all Swimsation Swim Schools from 1st February 2025.
