Nipper day
Nippers runs each Sunday morning, with the exception of a couple of times during the season, when we hold Twilight nippers on Saturday afternoon. See calendar
A few rules for nippers and parents
- Nippers must keep cap on at all times - caps come off only after their name has been marked off at the end of nippers
- Nippers cannot leave their group unaccompanied
- Parents are expected to stay with their child. Age managers cannot be expected to supervise all children in such a busy environment. If you need to leave the group for a moment – arrange with another parent to be responsible for yours while you are gone
- Parents should assist where possible – you need to be a general member ($40) for insurance purposes
- U8+ nippers must wear pink vest while in the water
- Don’t forget sun protection
- Parents, if your age group is rostered on for BBQ and set up, please help
