THE CHANGES
COVID-19
UPDATE: 11/08/21
Following today’s government announcement, WynActive facilities will remain closed until government restrictions allow reopening. WynActive members will not incur costs for Health and Fitness, Aquatics or Swim School Memberships for the days of closure.
COVID-19 Vaccination Hub at Eagle Stadium
Wyndham City has welcomed the Premier’s announcement that Eagle Stadium will become a State-run vaccination hub. The stadium is positioned to vaccinate up to 1000 people a day and will have both Pfizer and AstraZeneca available to be distributed in line with health advice. The stadium and the carpark will be used for sit-down and drive through vaccinations.
Please note, booking for vaccinations must be made in advance via the government website https://www.coronavirus.vic.gov.au/book-your-vaccine-appointment
WynActive
are working with relevant sporting associations and Wyndham City Council to explore how we can continue to use the venue
for community sport once it’s able to return.
For Health and Fitness patrons and
Kindergarten students, the vaccination hub will not impact attendance to the gym,
group fitness classes or Creche. Once restrictions allow for reopening, these
facilities will be available to patrons.
COVID-19 Testing site at AQUAPULSE
The Department of Health and Human Services is currently using AquaPulse Carpark as a COVID-19 testing site. The testing site will be beneficial to the Wyndham Community in stopping the spread of COVID-19 as it will lower demand on other testing sites and reduce wait times.
In the event of regulations allowing AquaPulse to re-open on or before Friday 20 August, we will advise patrons of alternative parking arrangements.

WE’VE MADE POSITIVE CHANGES TO OUR OPERATIONS, ALL DESIGNED TO KEEP OUR MEMBERS, STAFF AND COMMUNITY SAFE
Here are all the changes you can expect:
High-grade disinfectant and more frequent cleaning
We have significantly increased our cleaning regime. This includes the use of disinfectant in all areas of the facility. Special attention will be given to the cardio equipment, weights, pin-loaded machines and all high-touch surfaces after every use. All equipment, including group fitness equipment will be cleaned between every use and further cleaning to studios and changerooms will be done daily.
Disinfecting high-touch surfaces
Throughout every day our safety attendant team will be disinfecting handrails, lockers, change rooms, sinks, toilets, benches, keyboards, computers and phones.
Giving you access to cleaning products
While we will have minimal equipment in group fitness classes, we have increased the number of wipes dispensers and will be ensuring everyone wipes down their equipment before and after every use.
OUR SHARED RESPONSIBILITY
We are committed to providing a safe and healthy environment for everyone. Please join us in helping to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 Virus
