Founders Day – Parramatta District Swimming at Wentworth Pool

The Joey Scouts from Parramatta District will be participating in fun water activities during the first hour of the Cub and Scout District Swimming Carnival. The Joeys do not have races and we use the small paddle pool for fun water based activities. The Joeys will rotate through the activities. At the conclusion of our activity the pool will be closed. (Please see the note below)

Please meet your Joey Leader inside the Centre. We will have a short ceremony to mark the birthday of Baden Powell who started Scouts and celebrates his birthday on 22nd February, then start our activities.

Parents and family are invited to join us. Spectators are free. Joeys will pay $6 each to their Leader.

Joeys should wear their Joey scout shirt over their swimmers with their scarf neatly rolled. Please bring a towel and warm top to wear after the event.

Please fill in the form and make sure you tick the boxes pertaining to SWIMMING and WATER ACTIVITIES and hand to your Joey Leader – SIGNED.

Closure of Small Pools
During Joey and Cub Events District Leaders and assigned parent helpers will provide supervision at the small pools. Pool staff will be directed to close the small pools that are not in use immediately after the joey and cub activities finish. There will be no supervision for younger children when the Joeys / Cubs carnival finishes and parents are directed to make arrangements to either supervise the younger ones themselves or take them home and return to collect the Scouts at the end of the night. It is considered too dangerous for younger siblings to be running around the pool area unsupervised by their parents.
