Changing Rooms
Separate male and female changing rooms with showers to either side of pool. The pool entrance is via the changing rooms on to the poolside through the footbath.
Meeting Point Children
Children will be met by the pool coordinators at the entrance to the pool. (Note that there are two entrances via both the boys and the girls changing room.) Children will be returned to this area at the end of the lesson. Children should assemble at the shallow end of the pool before the lesson begins. Children are escorted to either the shallow end or the deep end of the pool depending on which level of class they are in.
Viewing
The rule at this facility is that no parents are permitted onto the poolside. This is for safety, noise, lack of space and for insurance purposes we do, allow the parents the opportunity to monitor their child’s progression. Parents are invited to view lessons on specific days during the course of each term. Parents are free also to communicate with the lesson co-ordinator regarding their child's progress. Viewing is from two corridor windows at the shallow end of the pool.
Hygiene
All children must shower, blow their noses and go to the toilet before entering the pool.
