Supervision Requirements
Supervision of young children at public pools has been a concern for the aquatics industry for many years. There is often the misconception by parents and carers that the responsibility for supervision of young children lies solely with lifeguards.
“Lifeguards” are employed on a 1:100 ratio based on the expectation that parents/carers will directly supervise children.
*Terms and conditions *
- Please supervise your children in your care at all times
- Children under 10 years must be actively supervised by a person 16 years or older;
- Children under 5 must remain within arm’s reach.
- Appropriate attire must be worn while in the pool,
- Swimming nappies must be worn by young children.
Authority
All Lifeguards are authorised to:
- Request a person to leave the South Bank Precinct if they do not comply with any part of this management plan.
After reporting the incident, Council may implement a temporary or permanent prohibition on entry to the facility.
