Entry Poli­cies

Keep Watch – Our pool fol­lows Roy­al Life­sav­ing Society’s KEEP WATCH @ PUB­LIC POOLS policy.

• 0 – 5 year olds & non-swim­mers: give them all of your atten­tion, stay close to them (with­in arms’ reach — you must be in the water with them), watch them continuously.
• Chil­dren aged 6 – 10 years: con­stant active super­vi­sion required by a per­son 16 years and above.
• Chil­dren aged 11 – 16 years: rec­om­mend­ed you phys­i­cal­ly check up on them on a reg­u­lar basis.

Swim Ready — Swim Ready! is a pre-swim check devel­oped to achieve two key objectives:

1. Improve safe­ty and super­vi­sion of chil­dren 10 years old and under.
2. Main­tain a high stan­dard of pool hygiene (and decrease pool clo­sures result­ing from incidents).

A child is Swim Ready! when:

• A vis­it to the toi­let (or a suit­able aquat­ic nap­py check by a par­ent or guardian) has occurred.
• Show­er­ing has occurred before enter­ing the pool.
• Chil­dren can show life­guards who their super­vis­ing adult is (or for babies and very young tod­dlers the super­vis­ing adult shows life­guards the chil­dren in their care).

Once a child is Swim Ready! a Cus­tomer Ser­vice Assis­tant will pro­vide a Swim Ready! wrist band and you can enter the Alice Springs Aquat­ic & Leisure Centre.

• Chil­dren 5 years old and under receive a pink wristband.
• Chil­dren 6 – 10 years old receive a green (or colour oth­er than pink) wristband.

Coloured wrist bands indi­cate to life­guards which chil­dren require arm length super­vi­sion and which chil­dren are Swim Ready!
