Latest Covid-19 Restrictions Update from PARC and Pines

Following the Victorian Government announcement yesterday afternoon (Monday 26th October), we’re able to confirm the following updates from Wednesday 28th October.

1. Outdoor Group Exercise can start!

Yes! We can open our Outdoor Group Exercise classes for up to ten people from tomorrow! We’ve been working so hard behind the scenes to be ready for this launch. Visit our Outdoor Group Exercise website page for all booking information. Get in quick to avoid disappointment.

2. Increase capacity at Outdoor Pools

We’ve conducted a full health & safety review of our capacity at Pines and our Operations team has determined the maximum safe capacity we can offer is up to 36 people. Bookings will open from Wednesday this week to this new capacity. Visit the Pines Forest Aquatic Centre website for more information.

3. Additional Aquatic services

Under the updated restrictions we’re still reviewing any additional Aquatic services relating to community exclusive use and Learn to Swim in outdoor pools. We will provide further updates on this as soon as we can.

4. Potential re-open 9th Nov

We’re currently seeking clarity on other restriction updates and how they relate to the PARC facility opening on 9th Nov. We will keep you updated as soon as we know more, so watch this space!
