School swimming and water safety programs start next week

29 October 2020

Throughout November and December, the annual School Swimming and Water Safety programs will be conducted at swimming pools across the Bega Valley Shire.

This year, to maintain a safe environment and to comply with current NSW Department of Education COVID-19 restrictions, there will be no public access for the duration of these programs.

Dates and times our local swimming pools will not be available for public use during this period are below. This is to allow for adequate cleaning and sanitising between user groups.

Council appreciates your consideration and patience during this time. It will help to ensure these important water safety programs can continue to be delivered to children in the Bega Valley.

Please check in with your local pool to confirm details closer to the program dates.
