Pool Rules

We are a Pool Safe pool.
We also operate a Pool Alone policy to ensure the safety of our younger swimmers.
Lane Etiquette:
Share lanes; choose the lane for your speed.
Swim clockwise at all times – like on the road, keep the blue lane next to your right arm stop only at the ends.
No hanging on the lane ropes.
Supervision:
We have strict supervision policy in our aquatic centre. Our pool will uphold these policies and procedures at all times.
Children aged 0-3 years and must be accompanied in the water and actively supervised by a caregiver 16+ in the same pool with a ratio of 1 adult to 2 children.
If your child is between 4-8 years the ratio is 1 adult to 3 children, they are to be Actively Supervised by a caregiver 16+ at all times and the children must all be in the same pool (unless there is more than one adult).
Actively Supervised means watching your child at all times, and being able to provide immediate assistance when necessary.
