As the chilly embrace of winter settles in, Ascot Aquatics Centre is preparing for a brief closure to ensure our facilities are in top shape for our patrons. From 3.00 pm on Saturday 22nd June, until Monday 15th July, the centre will be closed for essential maintenance and upgrades.

Why the Closure?

This period forms a part of our annual yearly maintenance. This period of closure allows us to perform necessary maintenance tasks that are crucial for the safety and enjoyment of all our patrons. The work includes:

• Upgrading the pool heating system to ensure comfortable temperatures year-round.
• Performing critical repairs and improvements to the centre
• General maintenance to keep the centre in pristine condition

Looking Ahead

We appreciate your understanding and patience during this period.  We reopen on Monday, 15th July; we look forward to welcoming you all back!

Dear Parents & Swimmers,

Term 1 will be finishing on Saturday 2nd of April. 

It has been a challenging few weeks with flooding and the recent spike in COVID cases, which has resulted in students being unable to attend lessons. 

We are happy to offer makeup lessons for families that have been unable to attend their lessons due to these recent events. Please contact us via phone or email to arrange for a suitable makeup lesson before the end of Term 1.

Our team will endeavour to accommodate every request where possible. 

Term 2

Term 2 will be commencing on Tuesday 9th of April (after the Easter long weekend).

Your child/children will be automatically rolled over into their current lessons for Term 2. Please notify us via email if you don’t wish to continue lessons next term or need to make any changes to lesson scheduling.

We realise that people have gone through a very hard time over the last few weeks, and we hope that you have all managed to stay safe.

Kind Regards,
