sKids | Before and After School Care
At sKids Pillans Point, your kids will find fun, friends and new challenges.
Before School, we provide a tasty breakfast, giving each child the right start for a great day of learning. We’ll play a group game or activity and then make time to do homework if it’s needed.
After School, we serve a nutritious afternoon tea, run an activity, and deal to any homework so you don’t have to! Whether you need care for full weeks or a few days a term, your child will be safe, secure, and having a great time.
School Holidays are filled with fun and adventure. Our Holiday Programmes take your kids on a journey of discovery and creativity with crafts, science experiments, sports and games, teamwork challenges and lots more. We even go out on and explore our community for trip days!
Please visit the sKids website for more information.
Community Pool Use
POOL ACCESS OUTSIDE OF SCHOOL HOURS - 25/26 SEASON
Pillans Point School views the school pool as a resource for the community, outside of school hours. Each summer, the school sells pool access to members of our school community via the PalGate app.
When people share a communal space like a pool, it's important for everyone to be considerate and follow the rules and etiquette to ensure a positive and enjoyable experience for all.
Please note: Dogs are not allowed inside the pool gates or in the pool itself.
DETAILS FOR THE 25/26 SEASON
Pool Hours:
8am - 8pm on Weekends and Holidays
4:30pm to 8pm on School days (allows uninterrupted time for sport teams)
*please note these are strict times and your app will be set for the above. You will not have access to the pool outside of these hours. Specific dates apply also.
For Health and Safety reasons, there will be a maximum of 75 Pool accesses sold to the community.
SECURITY & PALGATE APP
Our school pool has 24/7 security camera coverage that we will use in the case of misuse of the pool area.
Pool access will be through the use of the PalGate App. Once you have registered and paid for pool access by completing the form below; you will be emailed instructions on how to download & use the PalGate app. * The app is locked to your phone number, so please choose the most commonly used device at signup. Two devices per pool payment (both users must be within the family group).
Once you have downloaded and set the app up; you will have access to the pool.
The app will only work if you are 1m or less away from the pool gate, and are connected to the internet.
Click on the relevant icon below to download the app for your phone.
Please ensure if you are the last person in the pool that you put the cover back on. This can be done by one strong person but works best/smoother with two people (one to lift from the roll and one to pull). This helps us keep costs down, keeping in the warmth and reducing the need for excess chemicals.
Pool Access Registration Form
Please note - you have to complete payment at the end of this registration form. If you don't make payment when prompted after completing the form; your registration will not be sent to us to process.
The PalGate app is locked to your phone number, so please choose the most commonly used device at signup. Up to two devices per pool payment (both users must be within the family group).
