To all the dads, stepdads, grandads, father figures, and the amazing men who show up for their whānau, happy Father’s Day! 👨‍👧‍👦

Whether you’re the one teaching them to swim, cheering from the sidelines, making a splash together, or simply being there when they need you most, today is all about celebrating you. 🏊‍♂️💦

We hope your day is filled with plenty of laughs, love, and quality time with your whānau.

Happy Father’s Day! 💙

🛝 The hydroslide pumps have officially clocked off! 😴

After years of keeping everyone zooming, they’ve earned retirement. While we replace them, the hydroslide will be closed.

We know our adrenaline junkies will be disappointed, but don’t worry, the slide isn’t gone forever, just enjoying an inconvenient little holiday. 😎

We’re aiming to have it back up and running next weekend but we will keep you updated!

Nothing beats training with new toys! 💦

Today’s staff training was all about getting familiar with our brand new inflatable, making sure our team is confident, safe, and ready to bring even more fun to our community.

While we’re still working through a few logistics around how it will operate in the pool, today’s session was a great chance for our team to get hands on, test it out, and make sure we’re ready for launch.

A huge mihi to our incredible sponsors and supporters. Your generosity helps us invest in exciting equipment like this, creating more opportunities for whānau to play, connect, and make lasting memories at Splash Centre.

We can’t wait to welcome you onto it soon! 🌊💙
