From Monday 14 February our Aquatics team will be split into two bubbles. This will give us the best chance of keeping our pools open should one of our Aquatics team return a positive COVID-19 test. You can read the full story here – www.kapiticoast.govt.nz...
Here’s a summary of the changes:
? Coastlands Aquatic Centre will be closed between 12noon and 3pm and at the earlier time of 8.30pm Monday to Friday. Weekend hours are 8am to 3.30pm. The programmes pool will be closed to the public at all times.
? Waikanae Pool will open daily between 10.30am and 5.30pm, with the toddler pool only available on weekends.
? Ōtaki Pool will be open from 11.00am–6.00pm Tuesday to Friday, from 8am–3pm on Saturdays, and closed on Sundays and Mondays.

I'm a handsome, goofy, gentle giant who is loving and eager to please. I've been learning to walk nicely on a lead while at SPCA and am very responsive to treats and human affection. While I enjoy a walk, I'm also happy just to have a cuddle, and Netflix and chill.
I've made a few canine girlfriends at the centre, and mix best with larger girls who are happy to play and don't mind some barking. I am not suitable for a home with cats or small animals at this stage. I would be happy to live with teenage kids."
