Important Information
The fitness studio is open to the general public during Teen Gym and other sessions. A code of conduct will be issued to each child during the induction and it will also be on display in the studio. This must be adhered to at all times and any unacceptable behaviour will not be tolerated. Children are encouraged to respect the equipment, other users and the general guidelines for using the fitness studio. Persistant disregard for the code of conduct will result in the child's Authorised User card being withdrawn.
What to wear
School uniform is not appropriate for either the induction session or gym sessions. Please ensure that children bring or wear suitable clothing to exercise in, for example a T shirt, shorts/joggers and trainers. Children who do not wear appropriate clothing will be turned away. If you are in any doubt please ask at reception or talk to a fitness instructor.
