Auckland venues:
We follow the Royal Lifesaving Keep Watch policies developed to educate the public about adequate supervision and encourage parents/guardians to take on this responsibility when visiting a public aquatic facility.
Therefore, the following safe supervision policies must be adhered to:
Children aged 4 years and under
An adult or caregiver aged 17 years or older MUST be in the water and within arms reach of all children aged 4 years and under at all times.
Children aged between 5 to 10 years of age
An adult or caregiver aged 17 years or older MUST be actively supervising. You must be watching the children and be ready to help them and be near your children so you can hear them, and they can hear you.
We do not consider you to be actively supervising if you are using a mobile phone, or in a sauna or spa. If you aren’t able to meet the minimum adult to child supervision ratio you will be denied entry to the facility.
