Pool Party - Summer Sports Day

Grab your friends and whānau, and pack your togs, towel and sunscreen - we’ve saved the best ‘til last.

Sports enthusiasts and aspiring athletes - this summer pool party is for you. We have an epic day out planned for the whole whānau.

Practice your best selfie smiles and get ready to meet your favourite Rams, Pouākai and Tactix players – they’ll be at the party from 12.30pm until 2pm.

Kids of all ages (and kids at heart) can bounce, slip and slide on the most epic giant inflatables – we’ve got the wipeout, mega basketball hoops, ball rush, obstacle course, gladiator and inflatable axe throwing, plus more pool inflatables for you to enjoy.

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.

We’ll be playing sweet tunes – so you can get your groove on.

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 21 January 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.
