Park Supervision

• All minors (paying and non-paying) under the age of 16 must be accompanied by a responsible adult aged 18 or over at all times. This is not only for the safe-keeping of the park, but also in case of a medical emergency – we are unable to treat anyone under 16 without parental consent. Please refer to section 5 of our terms and conditions for more details.
• Skate supervision guidelines:
• We recommend a minimum age of 4 and over for skating, although we advise parents to use their discretion on whether very young children will enjoy the experience.  No child under 2 will be allowed to skate.

• All children aged 8 to 17 must be accompanied in the skating area by a responsible adult (the adult can supervise from the side of the rink).
