GOswim Book Week, August 2025

This year’s theme Book Week theme, Book and Adventure, is the perfect match for our Goswim members, after all, both reading and swimming unlock a world of new experiences and adventures!

Across the week, our GOswim team will deliver themed activities during swimming lessons to spark the imagination and celebrate the joy of storytelling. These activities are designed to keep students engaged in a fun, educational way while also reinforcing key water safety skills. Families may also see themed decorations at the pool, creative displays, and opportunities for children to share their favourite book characters.

At Mill Park Leisure, we are excited to celebrate Book Week with these fun activities

  • Costume Competition: come along to your lesson dressed as your favourite book character. Prizes available for best dressed!
  • Gifts for our GOswim students

Book Week is all about celebrating creativity, curiosity, and confidence – values which align closely with what GOswim teaches in the water every day.

For more details on what’s planned at your venue, speak to your Goswim teacher on your next visit.
