Swimming Policy

For our Mini Champs aged 5 and under, a dedicated Camp Leader will provide direct supervision at a reassuring ratio of 1:2. Meanwhile, campers aged 6 and above who haven't passed the test are required to wear a life jacket, maintaining a supportive Camp Leader ratio of 1:4.

Safety is our top priority, and as such, life jackets must be worn at all times for those who haven't passed the deep-end test. We're committed to ensuring a secure and enjoyable environment for all our campers.

Mini Champs will have exclusive access to the independent stalls in the Family Changeroom. We encourage all campers to dress and undress independently, without assistance from Camp Leaders.

If your camper requires minimal assistance, please feel free to call us to discuss our policies. We are committed to ensuring a comfortable and supportive experience for every camper and family.
