Update: Easing of restrictions and how these impact PARC

Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews has announced a further easing of coronavirus restrictions, with swimming pools allowed to open with limits of 20 people and additional safety requirements in place, from 1 June. The Premier also indicated that if community transmission rates remain low and testing rates remain high, indoor fitness and recreation facilities, such as PARC, will be able to open with up to 20 people per space and up to 10 people per group or activity at any one time, from 22 June.

Whilst we are delighted to hear we are one step closer to PARC reopening, Peninsula Leisure is currently assessing these new restrictions and guidelines in detail, with a view to engaging with Frankston City Council to ensure a reopening plan is in place, that is focused on both community activation and safety.

We look forward to sharing more details as soon as further information is available.

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.
