THE POOL

Shallow-pool play with lifeguard supervision

The party centers on the centre’s shallow pool where children can splash under lifeguard supervision for the full two-hour booking period—an arrangement designed specifically with toddlers in mind.

THE SETTING

Dedicated outdoor lawn with shade and seating

Each booking includes a reserved area on the outdoor lawn that provides shade, a table and chairs—an anchor for cake, gifts and caretakers keeping an eye on the water.

THE OPTIONS

Flexible add-ons: BBQ, cake, catering and an on-site café

To simplify planning, the centre offers optional BBQ hire, birthday cake and platter catering, and operates a pool café with hot food, drinks and snacks; guests are also welcome to bring their own food and drinks.

What the day feels like

What the party feels like

The rhythm of a Splash N Play Party is compact and focused: arrival and check-in, settling into the shaded lawn area with table and chairs, then two hours of shallow-pool play under lifeguard supervision interspersed with breaks for food and cake from your own provisions, the on-site café, or ordered catering.

Suitability

Who it's for

Who this party setup suits—and who should look elsewhere.

1
Toddlers & Young FamiliesIdeal: the shallow pool and lifeguard supervision are designed for toddlers, with the lawn area making it simple to manage food and rest; minimum guest rules and close-supervision requirements are tailored to this group.
2
Caregivers & SupervisorsGood fit: adult supervisors are required and admitted at no charge, but must be on the guest list and actively watch children—this setup expects engaged caregivers throughout the event.
3
Small-group PlannersConditional fit: there is a minimum booking size (10 guests) and area hire does not include exclusive use of the pool, so planners should ensure their guest list and expectations match the centre’s policies.
4
Event Organizers Seeking ExclusivityNot ideal: the booking does not guarantee exclusive pool use and public patrons may still be present; organizers wanting private hire should confirm availability with the centre.
