Media Release Monday 15 July 2013 Selwyn Aquatic Centre proves popular Over 7,600 people visited the new Selwyn Aquatic Centre during the first two weeks of the centre’s operation. Selwyn Aquatic Centre manager Kathy Moore says that the comments from the 7,648 people who visited the centre during its first two weeks have been incredibly positive. “Our staff are getting lots of comments about how fantastic the new centre is and how great it is to have this facility in Selwyn.” “It’s a wonderful facility,” says local resident Libby Chambers who visited the new centre with her young son Will. “We love coming here and we found the staff to be extremely helpful and enthusiastic.” Kathy Vernimmen, of Rolleston, has also visited the pool three times since it had opened and has been using the hydrotherapy pool. “It’s great to have the pool here to use,” she says. “I used to visit a pool in Christchurch as swimming is a good form of exercise for me as it helps with my arthritis. Now I can use a local heated pool.” Despite the centre being extremely busy, Kathy Moore says staff have been able to provide a high level of customer service. Aquafitness classes at the centre began last week. The timetable for classes is available online at selwyn.govt.nz/sac. Swim school lessons will start from the week of 29 July. Infant and pre-school lessons will start two weeks into term three (in mid August). Families will be contacted in the next two weeks to confirm lesson times.
