Aquatics
Effective from 11.59pm Sunday 17 January, Victorian Government advice regarding face masks reverted to the settings that were in place prior to 31 December 2020.
While wearing a face mask will no longer be mandated in most circumstances, you must continue to carry one at all times. When physical distancing of 1.5 metres cannot be maintained, it is strongly recommended you continue to wear a face mask both indoors and outdoors, and for instances where first aid is administered.
The sauna, spa and steam room have reopened at Clayton for members only.
