Parent and Toddler Swim
A general swim session specifically for parents/carers and their toddlers. There will be lots of space to swim with the little ones and remember under 5s are free, without the worry of older children taking up the space. Our cafe, seating area and green space do not need to be booked and are available to use at anytime for free.
Price
Under 5s are free - but please still select the free ticket as they count in our lifeguard ratios.
For Adults, there are 4 tickets available. The tickets are exactly the same apart from the cost. Our message to you is ‘pay what you can afford’.
Timings
The session is for one hour. However, if the following session is quiet, lifeguards may allow longer swims. This is based of lifeguards discretion.
Age range
Open to young children and their parents/carers. Children must be accompanied by an adult.
Ratios:
1 adult (16+) can bring up to 2 children under 8 (U4s must wear an attached buoyancy aid)
For U4s without an attached buoyancy aid, the ratio is 1 adult: 1 child
ALL U8 non-swimmers must be within arm’s reach of a responsible adult at all times and must not go beyond the non-swimmers sign.
