Aquatic Supervision

Aquatic Supervision Policies

Active Supervision – All your attention, All the time

Take steps to minimise distractions to avoid lapses in supervision – such as mobile phones or chatting with other parents. You should never leave your child alone in the water, nor should they be left in the care of an older child or with the assumption that your responsibility diminishes due to the presence of lifeguards.

Let us know you are here and swim safe

Vulnerable Swimmers

We welcome all swimming abilities to enjoy our pool facilities. We ask that if you are not a strong swimmer or not confident around the water, you let a lifeguard or staff member know and wear a wristband.

We ask that you follow a few simple tips to make sure you have a fun and safe experience in our Centre.

  • Wear an orange wristband – you can get these from reception or the Lifeguards. This is to help lifeguards know to keep an eye on you while you enjoy the water. 
  • Let staff know you are a vulnerable swimmer – Talk with the nearest lifeguard or even reception staff to let them know where abouts in the centre you may be swimming. 
  • Swim with a friend or companion 
  • Be aware of depth changes – pools can change depth in different areas – please be aware of this before you enter the water. Ensure you are swimming in areas suitable for your swimming ability and confidence. 
  • Don’t go over chest height – stay in the shallower water to allow you to always stay standing.
