Pool Safety Rules
At Swim Stars , safety is our top priority. There is always a lifeguard present and we operate strict pool safety rules to ensure a safe environment for all our swimmers. In the event of a fire, we will evacuate, children will need to follow the instruction of their teachers, and any parents who are poolside will need to leave via the poolside fire exit. Parents who are in changing rooms and/or foyer area, must leave via the main pool door entrance.
If your child, changes independently, please ensure they are aware of fire exits and procedures. Please ensure you read and follow the rules carefully.
