Pool Closed This Sat June 13th

Dear DGSWIM Families,

We have just been advised by Surfers Paradise State School that the pool will be closed this Saturday (13 June) due to scheduled asbestos removal works associated with the school's ongoing roof restoration project.

We appreciate that many families will remember the previous closure last month. These works are part of a different stage of the school's overall roof restoration project and are not located within the swim school or pool facility itself. As with the previous closure, the decision to close the site has been made by QBuild, who are managing the project on behalf of the Department of Education.

Importantly, this is a one-day closure only. The asbestos removal works are scheduled to be completed on Saturday 13 June (same day), and DGSWIM will resume all lessons as normal from Monday 15 June. We appreciate that many families were understandably concerned after the previous closure, so we wanted to reassure everyone that this is a single-day closure only.

Unfortunately, DGSWIM had no involvement in either the timing of the works or the late notice and was only advised once the closure had been confirmed.

For the safety of all students, staff and contractors, the entire school site will be closed, meaning no access to the pool or school grounds will be permitted during the works.

We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience and appreciate your understanding.
