We have been and will continue to monitor the situation relating to COVID-19 and always follow advice from the Australian Government, Somerset Regional Council, Fitness Australia and Queensland Health to ensure that we are adhering to the recommended guidelines for the health and safety in everything we offer.

Centre activities, classes and programs

We would like to assure our members and their guests of the following: –

  • We offer hand sanitiser, tissues and medical-grade disinfectant spray for surfaces
  • That our Centres are cleaned several times daily is hospital grade cleaning products and all surfaces are wiped after use.
  • Certain activities will not be returning until a later, safe date such as netball, hot yoga, kid’s activities. Morning yoga will be conducted on the court area.
  • We ask any members going interstate or overseas to inform us about their travel and method – this will be documented.
  • Staff have the right to ask someone who is displaying signs of Covid-19, to leave the premises, and seek medical clearance (but we hope people will stay away if they have any signs)

What we are asking YOU to do!

Please practice good hygiene – this includes:

  • Washing your hands often with soap and water
  • Using alcohol-based hand sanitisers
  • Covering your coughs and sneezes with your elbow or tissue and disposing of tissues properly
  • We ask that you refrain from bodily contact whilst at the Centres including shaking hands, hugs.
