Sports Teams – Changing Room locations

Hi wonderful student athletes.

Here is a reminder that IF you require space to change into your clothing for any activity, especially sports teams, please can you use the Blue/Green gym changing rooms that are allocated for you to use before 6pm (Blue gym for Adults after 6pm)

PLEASE do not change in the swimming pool changing rooms as these are for swimming only and also for hygiene reasons.

Thank you so much for supporting this as we move forward in more activities and seasons ahead.
