WE’RE BACK OPEN FROM FRIDAY!

We are SO happy to announce that from 6pm this Friday, 29 October, PARC will reopen our doors again! 🤸‍♀️🏋️‍♀️🏊‍♂️🎉

The Victorian Premier has announced an easing of COVID restrictions effective 6pm Friday 29 October, allowing indoor fitness and recreation facilities, such as PARC, to open with some restrictions: 

  • Open to fully vaccinated staff and patrons (16+ years, or valid medical exemption),  
  • Density quotient of 1 person per 4sqm, and 
  • Masks still indoors. 

This is amazing news, as with no capacity limits and the density quotient level allows us to get back to (pretty much) NORMAL OPERATIONS! 👏 

🌟 Lap swimming and recreational swimming is back, along with the Aquatic Playground.
🌟The Warm Water Pool Area is open, along with the Sauna, Spa and Steam Room with capacity limits.
🌟 Swimming lessons are back from Monday 8 November, allowing a 6-week program in the lead up to Christmas. 
🌟 Gym is open and all equipment is available for use. 
🌟 Group Exercise Timetable resumes from Saturday 30 October (limited classes over Cup Weekend, with a new update timetable resuming Wednesday 3 November). Bookings open Friday 29 October at midday. 
🌟 Memberships are reactivated.
🌟 Café is back for your delicious morning coffee and nutrition hit.
🌟 Creche is back open from Monday 1 November. 
🌟 No more bookings required at Pines outdoor pool, and free entry for PARC members! 

 PARC ENTRY CONDITIONS 

 We will enforce strict Conditions of Entry, including sighting evidence of full vaccination prior to entry, QR Code Check Ins, and mask wearing indoors.  

ALL MEMBERSHIPS WILL BE REACTIVATED 

For the period of our closure, all memberships were placed on hold. We are reactivating all Full Access and Aquatic Access memberships from Monday 1 November. PARC Swim will be reactivated on Monday 8 November. If you are not ready to return, please suspend your membership here: LINK (please do so by 5pm Thursday, to avoid being charged)  

More details coming via email in the next days.  

We can’t wait to welcome you all back from 6pm on Friday. See you in Centre soon!

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.
