 Schools Currently Accessing Victor Harbor Aquatics:

Need to indicate to Instructor in Charge that you wish to access VHAC the following year so the allocation can be updated at the beginning of each year. Student numbers can be updated once term 1 has commenced. To ensure desired dates are booked please rollover booking or discuss alternatives with Instructor in Charge asap, (this is especially important if large student numbers or accommodation/transport is involved).

Schools currently accessing another aquatic centre:

May access VHAC once an allocation has been gained or can book a program on a User Pays rate.

If transferring from another centre a courtesy call is recommended to that centre to cancel booking.

Schools not re-booking with VHAC:

Please let Instructor in Charge know if you will not be re booking with VHAC, this would be appreciated as it will assist with future bookings.
