Pool and weights room access

The swimming pools and gymnasium (weights room) are available for use by members of the Old Boys’ Association (OBA), current staff, students and parents of Christ Church during the hours outlined below. Please note, the pools and gymnasium are operated separately and their access hours are subject to change, depending on the needs of students and our teaching program.

Community access requires identification token

Tokens are available through the School’s Main Reception and community and staff are reminded to carry this token if they wish to access the school swimming pools or weights room during community access hours.

In addition, weights room users are required to obtain an annual ‘gym’ tag issued upon completion of their annual health screening at the gym. Book direct with gym staff for your health screening.
