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
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.
Candidates are encouraged to bring goggles. Candidates must have ability to swim comfortably in deep water and 200 meters consistently.
