Swimming Pool
The pool is open in the warmer months during daylight hours ONLY. No food or drink is to be taken into the pool enclosure.

All children under the age of 12 years must be supervised at all times by an adult. Unsupervised children will be asked to leave the pool area. No infants in the pool unless they are wearing a swimming nappy. Please no bombing into the pool for safety and to minimise excess splash out as we rely on rainwater to fill the pool after excess water loss.
