H2O Xtream aquatic centre skirts maintenance with an earlier opening time

H2O Xtream is changing hours and trialing an earlier opening time as part of a roof upgrade after the September/October school holidays.

UPPER HUTT, Wellington NZ, 16 SEP 2016—Upper Hutt’s H2O Xtream aquatic centre is replacing the part of the multi-level roof which lifted off during a storm in November 2015. In order to carry out the maintenance, the facility will be closed to the public between the hours of 7.30 am – 3.00 pm on weekdays from Monday 10 October until Friday 4 November.

To reduce the disruption to regular pool users, H2O Xtream will be trialing an earlier opening time of 5.30 am on weekdays from Monday 10 October. This will continue beyond the maintenance period through to 31 January 2017, when the benefits of the earlier opening time will be reviewed. Weekend opening hours will not be affected by the maintenance.

During the four-week maintenance period, the facility will be open to the public as follows:

• Monday – Thursday: 5.30 – 7.30 am, 3.00 – 9.00 pm
•
• Friday: 5.30 – 7.30 am, 3.00 – 10.00 pm
•
• Saturday: 8.00 am – 7.00 pm
•
• Sunday: 8.00 am – 6.30 pm, 7.00 – 9.00 pm (women only)
•
Daytime hydrorobics classes will not be running on weekdays during the maintenance period. They will continue to run in the evenings at 7.35 pm on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday nights, and at 9.00 am on Sunday.

There will be no Toddler Time sessions during maintenance period.
