Rules of Conduct

Once parents have signed the terms and conditions they are given an access code for the pedestrian gate to access the site during Funzone hours (from 7.40am to 6pm), this code must not be given to children or shared with families not using Funzone.  The code changes each school year.

To protect the privacy of our children, mobile phones and cameras are not to be used by visiting adults within the school grounds and buildings..

The entrance to the Funzone is through the pedestrian  gate at the front of the school, walk through the playground to the rear of the school for the patio door entrance to Funzone. Children are not allowed to walk round unaccompanied. Children remain the responsibility of the parent/carer until they are handed to a member of the Funzone team.

Personal Possessions

We accept no liability for the damage or loss of any personal items whilst attending Funzone.

General Terms

We will give you one month’s notice of any change in the fee schedule or any change in these terms and conditions.

Funzone will be swimming on Tuesday and Thursday (when the pool is open).
