Once the parent and baby are in the water, and reception has advised of numbers on pool deck, you can make your way to observe your c...hild’s lesson. Once the class has come to an end and the parent and child are coming toward the pool steps to exit the water, the parent observing MUST vacate the pool deck and wait outside or in the foyer if we are not at capacity in that area.

02.01.2022 ..Happy Monday mums, dads, grandparents & friends We would like to take this opportunity in using our platform by sharing some news & info with you all. Understandably the following is quite lengthy, however we would be sincerely grateful if you took a few moments to read. Most of you have often seen our wonderful family member, friend & colleague John around the swim school. He is often seen going up & down the stairs, smiling & greeting families in reception & taking grea...t care of the pool itself. Some of you may have recently noticed John’s absence. Many of you have asked out of curiosity, How’s Jonno? What is he up to? Has he been fortunate enough to scurry away on a nice little getaway? His family most definitely wishes this was true. Almost 3 weeks ago, as he was preparing his morning for his weekly game of golf; John suffered a stroke. He was rushed to hospital & underwent an extremely risky surgery. We are so thankful & pleased to share John came through surgery & is on his long road to recovery. He will have many months of multiple therapies, but we are hopeful & optimistic he will get through this with great determination & strength. With that being said, this November our awesome reception manager & swim coach Louise is taking part in Stroke Foundation’s Stride4Stroke to help prevent, treat and beat stroke. In Australia, one stroke occurs every 9 minutes. It is one of Australia's biggest killers. Stroke attacks the brain, the human control centre, changing lives in an instant. The impact of stroke can be devastating for the individual and the family. However, the impact of stroke can be prevented, with research indicating that around 80 percent of strokes are preventable. Louise has picked my Stride4Stroke activity goal and she is ready to go! Please support my Stride4Stroke challenge with a donation today. Your donation will help the Stroke Foundation support those affected right now and fund research to help prevent stroke, save lives and enhance recovery. Thank you all for your time, understanding, love and support. We will be sure to keep you all updated on his progress & will be more than happy to pass on any words of encouragement & well wishes; To John and his family- From our PK family to yours- **If you would like to make a generous donation, please follow the link below https://www.stride4stroke.org.au/fundraisers/louisemortimer
