Goodbye to the old, Hello to the new - 17 October 2021
It is with mixed feelings that we completed our last session at the pool which has been home to the Lifesaving Club for over 43 years! Head to our Photo Gallery to take a look at some of the photos going back through the club's history.
We are excited to be starting a new chapter for the club at the wonderful new Grange Paddocks facility just next door. We can't wait to see you all there on 24 October 2021!

Welcome back to over 18s - Sunday 23rd May 2021
With the relaxation of rules that came into force on the 17th May, we are pleased to be able to welcome back our members who are over 18.
Please remember to pay online, wear a face mask, come dressed for swimming (change on poolside). The changing rooms and showers are available after club sessions.
There is a one-way system in operation at the pool and it only opens a few minutes before the sessions. You will also be asked to complete a form before each session.
Reopening - Sunday 18th April 2021
In line with easing of lockdown restrictions, the club will reopen for under 18s on Sunday 18th April 2021. Safety measures and restrictions are still in place so students should come prepared as before the lockdown. If you have any queries ahead of Sunday's session, please do not hesitate to contact us.
We look forward to seeing you there!
