Arriving at the venue
The school is located in The Styles, and there is parking in the school for both after school, and Saturday morning classes. Being a school site, there is limited parking available, but there is also plenty of parking on the surrounding roads in the area. Those arriving for lessons should park within allocated bays on site, or park carefully and considerately on the surrounding streets.
We ask that swimmers arrive no more than 10 minutes before class, to allow the class before to change and leave the building, and to save disruption to the class before.
Please remove all socks and outdoor shoes before entering the building. We recommend bringing flip flops or pool shoes if you have them.
Important Information
Please note that this venue swims from March to October half term.
Swimming hats are required at this venue for all swimmers aged 4 years upwards (not required for parents in the water)
Please note that there are no showers on site.
All disposable swimming nappies and any rubbish must be taken home with you - please do not use bins on the school site for nappies.
Changing and Spectating
The facility is a school pool, of limited size, and has simple changing facilities. There are both boys and girls changing rooms, and toilet cubicles available.
Some changing mats will be available for those on Saturday mornings, but these are not guaranteed, so please feel free to bring your own where needed. On leaving, please remove any used changing mats and return them to the entrance.
No food or drink, other than water, should be consumed in the building or changing rooms.
Please do not bring car seats into the pool building or changing rooms.
There is space for one parent/guardian to sit poolside with any siblings attending (opposite side to the pool entrance).
We look forward to welcoming you to the pool!
