Pool Party - School's Out For Summer
Grab your friends and whānau, and pack your togs, towel and sunscreen - our summer pool parties are back and you're in for a treat.
Wave goodbye to your lunchbox, backpack and exercise books for a long hot summer of fun.
We’re celebrating the end of the 2023 school year with a pool party for all thrill seekers. We’ve got the gigantic inflatable Titanic slide, dino, obstacle course, obstacle slide and a bouncy castle.
Need to take a breath from all the fun? Curl up on a picnic blanket and enjoy a good read - our friends at Christchurch City Libraries are bringing their van loaded with taonga to discover.
Thanks to our sponsor Streets, we’ve got free ice creams to give away – get in quick before they run out.
Plus, prizes to be won with our scavenger hunt.
Pack your togs, towel and sunscreen and head on down for a great day out at Jellie Park on Sunday 17 December from midday to 5pm – we’ll see you there.
The general pool admission price applies. Please check out the pool status before you come.
Supervision of children:
- Children under five years old must be within arm’s reach and under constant supervision by a responsible caregiver aged 16 years or older in the pool at all times, who is wearing an orange wristband.
- Children between the ages of five and seven (inclusive) must be wearing a purple wristband and actively supervised by a responsible caregiver aged 16 years or older, who is to be within the pool area at all times and able to provide immediate assistance.
- Children aged 8 to 11 years (inclusive) must have a responsible caregiver 16 years or older on site.
