Swimming ratios
Children under the age of 8 years must be accompanied and supervised by an adult aged 16 and over at all times while in the pools and changing areas. Supervising adults must:
– Familiarise themselves with the pool environment in advance of entering the pools.
– Maintain a constant watch over young children in their care.
– Stay in close contact with the children at all times while in the water.
The maximum adult to child ratios are as follows:
– 8 and over can use the pool unsupervised, however we do recommend that weak or non-swimmers over 8 are supervised by a competent adult.
– Children 2 years and younger must be accompanied on a 1:1 basis, by an adult over 16 years of age.
– Children 2 years plus will be able to use the pool on a 2:1 basis (two children to one adult), by an adult over 16 years of age.
Swim aids are available to purchase at reception.
