New Thursday morning session for young families
From Thursday 18th July till 5th September between 10am and 11am there will be a session for young families.
They are drop-in sessions where one adult can come with one or two children under 8 years old.
There will be at least one teacher in the pool to assist as well as toys and floats, but it’s not a swimming lesson.
The cost of the session will be £7.00 for one adult and one child; £8.50 for one adult and two children. There will be no public swimming during the session and all participants must exit the water by 11.00am. If you wish to stay for ‘Fun Time’ you would need to pay for it too.
Booking is advisable due to the limited number of places at each session – please phone the pool on 01557 331881 to book each week.
