PARC reopens tomorrow | Thursday 18th Feb!

February 17, 2021

We’re thrilled to announce that following the Victorian Government press conference today, Wednesday 17th Feb we will be BACK OPEN tomorrow morning Thursday 18th Feb at 5am!

This means that Peninsula Aquatic Recreation Centre (PARC) will reopen with the same COVID restrictions that were in place prior to closure, which includes capacity in small spaces and wearing masks. See our COVID information page for full terms of entry.

Pines Forest Aquatic Centre will also reopen on Thursday 18th February at 6am! Please visit the Pines website for more information.

Important membership credit information

We will be applying a 5-day credit on your membership to the direct debit payment on THURSDAY 4th MARCH.

Please note: We were unable to apply this credit to tomorrow’s payment due to the late notice of the announcement. Therefore you will be charged your full membership fee tomorrow (Thursday 18th Feb) and the credit will apply in the next direct debit cycle (Thursday 4th March).

EXERCISE BOOKINGS OPEN AT 4PM TODAY!

We had to close Group Exercise class bookings upon closure and await Government announcement to confirm reopening. All class bookings will open for the next three days at 4pm today.

Please book via your MyPARC app or Group Exercise page on the website.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

When will PARC and Pines reopen?

PARC will open its doors again on Thursday 18th Feb at 5am.

Pines will open on Thursday 18th Feb at 6am.

What restrictions are in place?

At this point, we revert back to the same COVID processes we had pre-closure. Please refer to the COVID information page on our website for more details.

When will you apply the credit to my membership?

All membership accounts will be credited for the 5 days of closure at the next direct debit cycle on Thursday 4th March.

How will you keep me informed any future changes?

We constantly update our website and social media as the Government makes any announcements. We also keep our members updated via email and sometimes SMS. It is important that you ensure all your contact details are up to date with our member experience team.

We’re so grateful for the awesome support of our PARC family through this snap lockdown and really appreciate your understanding of the challenging situation.

Funded Can Swim Programs over January and February 💙💦💦

Join a fully subsidised swim program this summer to help us find innovative ways to teach swimming and water safety.

Over January and February 2024, Peninsula Leisure are running 3 pilot swim programs to test different Learn to Swim models. Through these programs we hope to learn more about swimming and water safety skills and knowledge, helping us towards our goal of ‘Every Child in Frankston Can Swim’.

What does that mean for you?

Each of these pilot programs is targeted at different audiences: youth, families, infants. The programs are fully subsidised for participants, and also come with access to PARC and PINES for the 2 weeks around the program time. All we ask is that participants complete a survey before their program, then again at the end, so we can see how this method of learning impacts water safety and awareness.

About the Programs:

⭐️ Youth 5 Day Program at PARC: Starting 8 January, 45 minute lesson per day.
⭐️ Family swimming and water safety session at PINES: Friday 19 January, 4.30pm-5.30pm
⭐️ Infant 3 day water familiarisation program at PARC over 19, 21and 23 February, at either 8.30am, 11.30am, 4.00pm or 4.30pm. 30 minute lesson per day.

✅ Register now ✅

Learn more and book via our website here: https://qrco.de/beaKws
Make sure you select the ‘PARC Swim Vision’ tab to see the full information and complete the form.

Any questions? Please email parc.swim@peninsulaleisure.com.au.
