While most people ease themselves into new roles, Dionne had vaulted into the fray here at the TAS Aquatics Centre in her capacity as LTS Co-ordinator. As a youngster, Dionne was a competitive swimmer and an international medal-winning gymnast and has wasted no time in re-designing our LTS programme and working on ways to integrate our Junior School Swimming programme with our afternoon Learn To Swim.

Developing pathways with meticulous attention to detail and watching young swimmers develop is always a great source of satisfaction to Dionne who dispenses high-fives, winning smiles and bubbly enthusiasm with equal measure.

An example of positivity and enthusiasm for the rest of the team, Dionne brings a vibrancy to the pool deck and is already a favourite with the kids!
