Sensory quiet sessions at the pool & gym

We are running three sensory quiet sessions each week in both the pool and gym areas at Harold Holt Swim Centre until Sunday 14 December 2025.

During a sensory quiet session, barriers that may prevent people with sensory needs from participating in aquatic, leisure or fitness activities will be kept to a minimum, this means:

• no music
• no hair or hand dryers
• no planned announcements
• no aquatic or fitness classes (except for Access All Abilities swim classes during 3 – 3.45pm on Fridays).

*Sensory quiet sessions may be impacted during school holidays.
*Lights cannot be dimmed for safety reasons.

Everyone is welcome to attend the swim centre during a sensory quiet session, we just ask you to be respectful and keep noise to a minimum during the session to contribute to the low sensory environment.
