Hello everyone,
We are moving to Queensland in January and because of this I won’t be running swimming lessons.
The lovely Nadine Ray is looking at running limited lessons and if your interested please contact Nadine. I will pass on email contacts to Nadine to email you her information of which you can choose to respond too. If you don’t wish me to pass on your email please let me know.
Thank you for so many amazing seasons teaching your kids to swim. It has always been a highlight and a joy.
Its been a privilege to spark the joy of swimming in so many kids and families in the Loddon Shire.
Thank you for the privilege. 😁🏊🏻‍♂️🏊🏼🏊‍♀️☀️❤️

Dear Parents,
I have reviewed the remainder of the swim school season and unfortunately, it has become obvious that it will be impossible to complete the lessons.
I have reluctantly decided to cancel the rest of the program and refund the remaining lesson fees.
With the effects of Covid and other commitments I am unable to guarantee we will be able to cover lessons. Plus, with the lack of lifeguards, it puts an extra strain on not knowing if this will impact us.
As we will be moving away next January this is my last season of swimming lessons and I would like to take the time to thank you for your continued business and for in trusting your children to me for learning such an important skill.
It's with a heavy heart I have to close early and Mikayla, Jorja, Sammi and myself will all missing teaching your children.
A big thank you goes to my 3 lovely ladies for all their work in the pool too.
I wish you all the best and I will always be here for a chat or some advice.
Refunds will be made for the remainder of the lessons and if you haven’t heard from me directly or received your refund yet please get in contact with me.
Thank you again! ❤️

I have confirmed we have lifeguards at the Inglewood pool tonight so lessons are a go.
This week we will begin to double up on days to make up for the missed lessons so we will be running lessons on Thursday and Friday afternoon.
Friday lessons are the same time as Thursday lessons.
Double lessons will continue when we return after the Christmas break. 😁

Looking forward to seeing our Mitti group one more time before Christmas 🎄

Dear families,
I received notice that the pools will be shut today due to cold weather.
Lessons will be canceled today and be rescheduled to Friday afternoon at the same time.
I understand this is a inconvenience for some and if you can’t attend I do run my swim school at Pyramid Hill pool on Monday’s and Mitiamo pool on Tuesdays and you are welcome to join us at these venues to make up for classes missed. Please give me notice so I can advise a best time.
So no swimming lessons today and we have changed to Friday the 10th of December.
Please like the swim schools page - Regional Swim Clinics Swim School - https://www.facebook.com/Regionalswimclinicsswimschool/
To keep up to date and pray for warmer weather 🙏🙂

Please remember the following points when using the Loddon Shire Swimming Pool:

* Children 5 and under must be in arms reach of an adult. If they are in the water please swim with them.

* Children under 10 must be supervised by an adult and be watched at all times which means phone away.

* You may be given a coloured wrist band to place on your child. These help the lifeguards identify your child’s age and ability at a glance. Please make sure they keep them on while at the pool.

* Season memberships can now be purchased and this may take some time for the lifeguards to processes so please be patient and wait. When purchasing a season pass you will be given a token to keep on your key ring, it is important to scan this every time you visit the pool as it will show how many people swim here daily.

* Anyone 12 years 2 months and over must be double vaccinated to enter the facility to play. The only exception to this is if a child is 12-16 years they can attend swimming lessons without being double vaccinated but must leave straight after their lesson. This is a requirement placed on the facility by the state government. Lifeguards will ask to view your vaccination certificate. Please respect these rules and respect the lifeguards. If you can not present your vaccination certificate you will be refused entry.

* If you enter the facility for a free event and stay at the facility past the event time you must pay to continue using the facility.

* Like many shires the Loddon Shire is experiencing a shortage of lifeguards and this unfortunately may mean pools will shut with short notice. Please spread the word that more lifeguards are need and that training is provided for free if you register your interest.

* It is also important to remember that to keep our pool open for years to come we need members. We are seeing pools in other Shires preparing to close country pools down.
We need paid members to prove that our pool is used and valued by our locals.

* If you have an issue with swimming lessons please speak to Katrina van Eyk. The swimming lessons have nothing to do with the lifeguards.

* Lastly, please respect the lifeguards. They are there to protect you and your children and they are not babysitters. If you have an issue please speak with them and they will help you as much as possible. Do not verbally or physically abuse lifeguards.
