Attention Customers

Thank you for your continued attendance, and support of our pools and leisure centres. We also thank you for your understanding of our COVID Safe plans that have been in place since we re-opened in June.

Our primary goal has been, and will continue to be, the health and safety of our customers, our colleagues, and our community, when they are within our world-class aquatic and fitness centres.

We are pleased to be announcing further updates to our COVID-Safe plans as we draw closer to Summer. Our Summer Plan will be implemented via a phased approach, and the following outlines the inclusions within Phase 1 of the Summer Plan, which is effective from Saturday 24 October, 2020.

Swim’n’Go

• Swim’n’Go remains in place for Phase 1, which means no Sunbaking, or lounging around the pool area (e.g grandstand, grass areas etc)
• For the courtesy of other customers wanting to access the leisure centre, you may be asked to observe a one-hour maximum attendance, which will be based on demand and capacity
• Our Staff may approach customers with a friendly reminder about the Swim’n’Go policy during their visit
• As listed above, customers are able to rec swim within the designated recreational lane (max capacity 15). This means customers need to be in the water, in this lane, and appropriate social distancing measures are followed.

Our health and sanitisation practises remain in place, including, physical distancing measures, increased cleaning schedules, sanitizer stations and contact tracing procedures (via QR code check-in) before entering the facility. 

We will continue to update our community via our website, social media channels and email, as future phases are rolled out.

We can’t wait to see you back at the pool and in the gym soon.

Regards,

Centre Management
