💦 Plot twist! 💦

Our inflatable has called in sick today... well, not really. 🤒

Unfortunately, due to staff sickness, we can't run the inflatable course today.

The good news? Both pools are still open, so you can still enjoy a swim. If you're heading to Clive War Memorial Pool, the climbing wall is ready for action from 10am–2pm. 🧗

Thanks for bearing with us while our team gets back on their feet. We hope to have the inflatable bouncing back soon!
