Earlier this year, Gurri Wanyarra Wellbeing Centre partnered with Bendigo Special Development School’s Health and Physical Education unit to deliver a 12-week physical activity program.  

“The students love visiting Gurri Wanyarra where they experience small group swimming classes over eight weeks; followed by four weeks of spin classes,” said Guest Experience Manager, Jake Thurm. 

Group Fitness Instructor, Peter Carr said, “The spin classes with the students are fantastic. They are all unique and are the highlight of my day when at the centre. You can see genuine joy and happiness during the activities and you can’t help but become drawn in with their enthusiasm.” 

“We are immensely proud of what we are achieving as part of the community. The relationships we build with students from schools such as Bendigo Special Developmental School are life-changing,” Jake concluded. 

Belgravia Foundation commends the team at Gurri Wanyarra Wellbeing Centre for connecting with Bendigo Special Development School to promote physical fitness through a welcoming, safe, social and fun program.
