PARC opens at 6pm!

We are beyond excited to welcome you back from 6pm tomorrow. That’s right, PARC will reopen our doors again to fully vaccinated patrons and staff from 6pm Friday 29 October!

 The density quotient of 1 person per 4sqm means all our usual programs and services can recommence, and we can get back to doing what we love – activating and engaging our amazing community.  

 Centre Access 

To keep the community safe, we have strict Conditions of Entry, including sighting evidence of full vaccination prior to entry, QR Code Check Ins, and mask wearing indoors. 

View our Covid safe information HERE.    

Reminders about our reopen 

  • Group Exercise Timetable: Resumes from Saturday 30 October. There will be limited classes over the Cup Weekend, with an updated timetable resuming Wednesday 3 November. Bookings open Friday 29 October at midday.  
  • Density quotient: We must operate with a density quotient of 1 person per 4sqm, this means our Spa, Sauna, Steam Room and Cycle Room will have lower capacity.  
  • Pools still warming up: Due to hitting the vaccination milestone earlier than expected, our pool is still coming up to ideal temperature, and may be 1-2degrees less than expected when we open our doors. Bear with us – we are heating our hearts out!  
  • Waterslides and birthday parties are not available as part of our initial reopen.  

All memberships will be reactivated 

For the period of our closure, all memberships were placed on hold and you were not charged. We are reactivating all Full Access (Complete) and Aquatic Access memberships from reopen, with our first direct debit to run on Monday 1 November. PARC Swim will be reactivated on Monday 8 November. If you are not yet ready to return, please suspend your membership here: Suspend My Membership

THANK YOU FOR SUPPORT 

We are nearly there team! We are so excited to get back to Centre, and we’re so grateful for the going support we have received through this lockdown and closure period – thank you, it means so much to the entire team here at PARC.  

We can’t wait to see you!

Join us in going off social media for a day on 24 October. 

This Saturday, on 24 October, we are joining Unplug24, a 24-hour break from social media in solidarity with SmackTalk – an organisation founded by local Wayne Holdsworth to honour his son, Mac, and raise awareness around suicide prevention.

Unplug24 encourages us to step away from social media and reconnect offline to:
🔌 Protect mental health
🔌 Raise awareness to prevent suicide
🔌 Support vital education and awareness programs

Let’s join together and unplug from all social media for the day – at work and at home – to show our support for this important cause.

The month of October is Walktober! 🚶‍♀️

This is a great opportunity to build more movement into your day, especially coming out of the winter months, and work towards your 30-20-2! Here are five tips from our Health and Fitness Team, on how you can get more steps in this Walktober: 

🛗 Take the stairs - Skip the lift when you can. 
🚗 Park further away - Add a few hundred steps before you've even started your day. 
📞 Walk while you talk - Take phone calls or catch-ups on the move. 
🌯 Do a lap at lunchtime - Even 10 minutes counts. 
🖥️ Step on the spot - Take a minute, and get some steps in at your desk

As always, if you need any help or guidance in getting your 30-20-2, please don’t hesitate to speak with one of our friendly staff members, or visit our Digital Hub for some inspiration.
Last days of our Cafe Special! ☕️
