Guest haggis-sa Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 Hey Wendy. I'm a swimming teacher in South Australia. Try www.austswim.com.au click on Queensland. I'm sure they will be able to give you a list of all Austswim accredited swim schools in the area you intend to live/work. Then it's just a case of emailing all the swim schools for vacancies/hours etc. Not sure about Qld but in SA you need Austswim Teachers Licence, Mandatory Report Writing Cert (now called Child Safe Environment) and Senior 1st Aid to work on any swim school. As for the fitness instructor, I reckon you would need to google Gyms in your prefered area and contact them. Good luck Addy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
