Supervision Requirements

Council would like to remind the community of the Keep Watch at Public Pools Policy which has been adopted at our Aquatics Centres.

This means that our Conditions of Entry require children aged 14 years and under to be supervised while at our Aquatics Centres.

You can read more about supervision requirements at our facilities here.

Accessing our facility

From 15 December, all Council facilities no longer require mask wearing or proof of vaccination for entry. COVID-19 Safe check in (QR Code) is still required for entry.

We have decided to continue check in requirements for now due to the high volume nature of our facilities and local case numbers.

Despite the easing restrictions, please don’t attend our facilities if you are feeling unwell.

All memberships placed on suspension at the time of closure on Thursday 5 August 2021, have been released from suspension. Patrons who need to maintain their suspension status can contact Maitland Aquatics on 02 4933 5073 or [email protected] to amend their membership details.
