Ms JODIE HARRISON (Charlestown—Minister for Women, Minister for Seniors, and Minister for the Prevention of Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault)—I'd like to congratulate Coughlan's Swim Centre, which this month is proudly celebrating 30 years of service to the Lake Macquarie community. Since officially opening its doors on June 3, 1995, Coughlan's Swim Centre has been a place where thousands of local families have introduced their children to the water in a safe, welcoming and community-focused environment. Founded by Leanne and Peter Coughlan with the support of Les and Dorothy Lazarus, the centre began with the simple idea of creating a small learn-to-swim pool. Over the years, that vision has grown into a thriving institution that now welcomes approximately 3000 children each week. The centre's strong community values have remained at its core, teaching multiple generations of families the life-saving skill of swimming. In recent years, Leanne and Peter have begun stepping back from day-to-day operations, with family members Hayley, Michael, Katie and Tyler proudly continuing the legacy and taking on greater leadership roles. A special 30th anniversary celebration was held this month to mark this incredible milestone. Congratulations to everyone at Coughlan's Swim Centre on reaching this achievement and thank you for your ongoing commitment to our community.
