Children under five: must remain within arm’s reach of their accompanying parent or guardian. If the child is in the water, the supervising parent or guardian must be in the water too.
Children aged five to 11: must be actively supervised within line of sight, with the accompanying parent or guardian maintaining clear and direct access to them.
Children aged 12 and over: may attend unaccompanied and must follow the Centre’s conditions of entry and behaviour expectations.
