Soak and swim
Join us for our women friendly Women's Swimming sessions. Soak and swim during the weekly sessions in a safe and private pool space.
Women's swimming sessions provide an environment for all women and girls to feel good and enjoy themselves in the water. The entire pool area has windows covered for privacy and only women staff poolside. This provides a friendly, safe, and secure space for women.
Try our aqua fitness classes, lane swimming or simply just relax in the family spa.
The lane pool will be split so that women can enjoy lane swimming or a leisure space to chill out and enjoy the water.

Why we have women's swimming sessions
During the consultation with the community in the build-up to Te Pou Toetoe Linwood Pool and Matatiki Hornby Centre pool opening, there was a call for special sessions where the facility would be available to women only, to help support women and girls to access and use the pool facilities.
There is a range of reasons women may choose to come to these sessions, including increased privacy and sense of safety, greater confidence in a women-only environment, spending social time with female friends and family, or because of religious and cultural beliefs.
