Foxfield School - Main Pool
New Hey Road, Woodchurch, Wirral CH49 5LE (just around the corner to Arrowe Park Hospital)
We can’t wait to welcome you to Puddle Ducks at Foxfield School – in the meantime, here’s some information that we hope you find useful.
Essential information:
- Where possible please arrive 'swim ready' to the pool
If your child is attending our Floaties, Splashers or Kickers classes or is not yet fully toilet trained they must comply with our 'Double Nappy' policy. Please use an approved snug-fitting neoprene (or other similar fabric) swim nappy such as our Puddle Ducks swim nappy. Under this, your child will need a reusable cotton swim nappy with a disposable liner such as our Eco NappyWrap & Liner or a disposable swim nappy.
The design of our Puddle Ducks swim nappy (stretchy neoprene with snug fitting deep waistband and leg cuffs) ensures that all ‘little accidents’ stay inside the nappy with the reusable cotton swim nappy or disposable swim nappy underneath providing an extra layer of protection (and making any ‘accidents’ so much easier to get rid of!).
TIP: A swim nappy needs to be snug around the legs and waist to do its job properly (but not too tight!)
- Please ensure all outdoor shoes are removed before entering the changing rooms or poolside
- No food or drink is allowed on site, which includes the changing rooms and also the school reception area
- Please ensure that you take ALL nappies home with you.
- You can find lots more useful information about attending our swim classes on our FAQs page
