General Rules Here at Neptune
Appropriate Swim Wear
Please ensure your child attends lessons wearing appropriate swimwear.
Swim shorts that are below the knee and bikinis are not allowed to be worn and may result in your child being unable to participate in lessons
Changing Room Use
Please note that once children are aged 8+ must use the correct gender-changing area.
Parents must ensure they are using the correct gender-changing area for them, not the child. This is due to adults changing for parent and baby lessons
Swim hats & goggles
Please observe that for all children aged 3yrs +, swim hats must be worn to lessons.
This is to aid in providing a hygienic swimming environment and to keep hair out of children's faces.
Goggles are at the discretion of the parent
Photography
Photography during swimming lessons is strictly prohibited.
If your child has a class teddy or homework that requires a photo of them at swimming, please contact the class teacher at the start of the lessons and we will arrange for a photo to be taken in a quiet section of the pool.
Sickness Policy
We politely ask all customers to refrain from bringing their children to swimming lessons if they have had sickness and or diarrhea in the last 48 hours.
