The Lido Aquatic Centre
We Put Leisure In Your Life And Life In Your Leisure
The Lido Aquatic Centre is more than just a swimming complex, it is a complete leisure and fitness facility catering for people of all ages and levels of fitness.
The Lido emphasises water safety and the SwimMagic swim school provides lessons from babies as young as five months, through to school age children right up to adults, who want to learn the basics or to continue developing their techniques. The lessons run seven days of the week and learn to swim lessons are available during school holidays.
The Lido offers general fitness with a fully equipped gym where you can opt for a personal trainer to help with your fitness goals or join in on the group sessions that run throughout the day. The indoor 25 metre and outdoor 50 metre pools are constantly in use for their Aqua Fit classes, which includes aqua aerobics and water Zumba.
Lido Aquatic Centre facility manager Lynden Noakes says, “These classes are great for people who prefer low impact exercises and really help to maintain fitness following injury”.
It also specialises in catering for school children with their Chill Out before and after school programmes along with their regular holiday programmes. The holiday programmes run each school holiday with various activities based at the Lido aquatic centre.
The holiday programme is divided into three age related groups; 5to 8-year-olds, 9- to 11-year-olds and 12+. Full days or half days are available and the programme is OSCAR and WINNZ accredited, so subsidies are available for parents who qualify.
The Lido has indoor and outdoor sports and leisure pools, a diving pool, gym, sauna, steam room, spa, and two hydroslides. Check the Lido Aquatic Centre’s website for more: www.clmnz.co.nz/lido/
