Please practice healthy swimming behaviors:
*Please do not go swimming if you are feeling unwell, especially if you have an upset stomach
*Please do not bring your child to swimming lessons if they are feeling unwell, have diarrhea, are vomiting (or have vomited in the past day) or have a cough
*Avoid swallowing the pool water or getting water in your mouth
In the event that our pool water is contaminated with fecal matter or vomit, facility staff are required to close the pool for 2 - 24 hours in order to properly disinfect the water and to ensure water quality is within the appropriate range set by the Public Health Act before swimmers can re-enter the pool.
A child repeating a level is very common, however, please speak with the deck supervisor if your child has repeated a level for the third or fourth time.
