Eumundi Swim Fit Aquatic Centre will reopen on Saturday 13 June.
The State Government has released its Industry Plan for aquatic centres which includes the following key guidelines:
Patrons of school age or younger that use swimming pools and accompanying facilities for training, education and general use purposes may do so without a limit on the number of swimmers per lane or per pool provided buffer zones are managed between adult patrons and children.
Swimming lessons can resume with instructor-led classes in the water. Social distancing will apply where practical but the safety and hands-on nature of learn-to-swim education is recognised and approved.
Venues with multiple pools/spaces can have multiple groups of 20 for adults and larger groups of children so long as social distance between groups is observed and patron details are recorded and kept.
Mayor Jamieson said patrons would be met with a welcome sight on their return to the aquatic centres.
Information will be sent directly via email to patrons early next week regarding Learn to Swim, Squads and Aqua Aerobics sessions.
For adult patrons – indoor/outdoor pools: capacity limited to a maximum of one person per 10 square metres of water surface area. As such we don’t expect that bookings will be necessary for the 25m pool. However, you may be required to wait for your swim should capacity numbers be reached at any one time.
BOOKINGS ARE COMPULSORY for the indoor pool with a maximum of 6 patrons permitted. Bookings can be made in person, on the phone or via this online form here https://form.jotform.com/201598611527862
