History

Nundah Swimming club was born, when the school pool opened in 1956. Parents pledged a monthly subscription amount, assisting with maintenance and management of the pool. These supporters became the first members of Nundah Swimming Club.

 

The first Annual General Meeting of the fledging club was held on 30 August 1960. Nundah State School Swimming Club was the first of its kind in Queensland and proudly assisted neighbouring suburbs to establish similar clubs.

 

Many people have contributed in small and big ways to the club over the years. In the 1960’s, Alan Gynther was an integral part of Queensland swimming. He established the Saturday morning and Summer holiday learn to swim classes at Nundah pool. With our Nundah Club swimmers, featuring in the film “Lets Swim” made by the education department for use in swimming education programs

 

Several of the clubs’ swimmers have represented Australia and many more competiting at State Titles and Nationals.

 

The success of Nundah Swimming is not measured in terms of carnival wins or representations at top-level swims; the number of records broken or times and statistics. Our success is the connection and opportunity offered to the thousands of children and parents over the past 65+ years. And of the friendships that endure long after competition has ceased.

 

And the kids, through their involvement, learn the spirit of competition, discipline of hard work in training, teamwork, sportsmanship, dedication to the club and the ability to cope with success as well as defeat.

 

We look forward to supporting thousands more like them in the years to come.
