About Us

Berala United Physical Culture Club is a small, family run club that has been teaching local girls the joy of physical culture since 1948. 

The club was initially called the Lidcombe-Berala Presbyterian Club before becoming affiliated with the Berala Uniting Church. The club remained connected to the Uniting church until 2011 when our classes had to move venues, prompting a name change to Berala United.

Berala has been a very prestigious and successful club over the years with many representatives competing at the Junior, Senior and Ladies National Finals and have gained many places at the annual team competitions. 

Previous teachers of Berala include Ruby Stevenson, Shirley Middleton, Doreen Smith, Pam Purdon, Gayle Garrett, and Camila Lourenco Lopes.

 The club is currently under the direction of teachers Nicole Baker, Rebecca White and Brooke Lampier, with assistance from Emily Grigg and Stella Croucher.
