17.01.2022 Great news everyone! Due to popular demand, we're starting our deep water class on Saturday mornings at the Nightcliff pool again from 5th December. However, b...ecause our original lane booking (pre-Covid) has been taken, we have to run it at 8.00 am in the morning. We are still running the deep water class at the Ski Club after that at 9.30 am for those who prefer a bit of a sleep-in. Let us know your thoughts as we value your opinions. We hope to see more of you returning cos we miss you! See more

17.01.2022 Territory businesses will soon have access to a new app that will assist them to collect customer contact details from 30 November 2020. The Territory Chec...k In app uses QR Codes to provide a contactless, secure and easy way for customers to sign in to Northern Territory businesses, organisations and venues. It also allows friends and family to check in, using one device. Information collected using The Territory Check In app goes directly to NT Health and is safely and securely stored for 28 days to assist with contact tracing if required. As Territorians start to travel more over the wet season it is important that we take extra steps to protect the health of our community. The Territory Check In app will be available for download from the Google Play and Apple Store on 30 November 2020. For more information visit https://coronavirus.nt.gov.au/
