2PRU GYMNASTICS CLUB

Last Updated: 23/03/2026

 

Parking:

• As a club we are lucky to have ample onsite parking. All club visitors must park in the main car park next to the main reception.

• ​ Parents/ Guardians must not park in other parts of the school unless instructed by the club.

​

Drop Off:

• Upon arrival at the gym block, please ensure your child is prepared for their session by being correctly dressed, having been to the toilet and having an adequate drink ready for their session.

• Gymnasts are welcome to use the toilet facilities and changing room facilities.​

• If your child is wearing a leotard for their gymnastics class, they must wear clothing on top when being dropped off and when being collected. 

• 5 minutes before your child's class starts, Gymnasts & Parents/ Guardians are to go upstairs to the gymnasium where they will meet a member of the 2PRU Team to be registered once the doors open. Please ensure your child is fully prepared for their session before coming upstairs.

• Gymnasts must leave their bags and personal belongings in the downstairs changing rooms.

  • Please note that 2PRU Gymnastics Club is not responsible for any loss or damage that does occur.

  • Please ensure all personal belongings are named.

  • In the event that we do find any lost property on our premises we will keep items safe until the end of each month.

• If your child is injured or recovering from illness, both parent/ guardian and child must inform a coach prior to their class beginning.

​

Late Drop Off:

• If you are late dropping off your child for their gymnastics class, please instruct your child to get ready as quickly as possible and use the appropriate changing rooms.

• Once ready, you must accompany your child upstairs and make yourself known to a member of staff so we can record your child’s attendance. 

 

Waiting:

• For your child's free gymnastics taster session, we invite you to sit in the gymnasium itself to watch your child's first gymnastics class.

• During subsequent weeks, parents/ guardians must drop their child off in the gymnasium and then leave the gymnasium until collection time. 

• For those of you with a child in our Pre School Programme, we require you to stay on site and physically engage with your child during every gymnastics session.

 

• Whilst on our premises, to keep our gymnasts safe we have a few simple "Do Not" rules to follow:

  • Do not enter the gymnasium unless given permission to do so.

  • Do not communicate with an actively coaching coach.

  • Do not interact with your child during a live session.

  • Do not show aggressive or abusive verbal language and/ or body language.

  • Do not take or upload any pictures or videos which contain other people to social media. 

  • Do not take flash photography and turn the flash on your phone off when receiving incoming phone calls or notifications.

  • Do not eat or bring any food into the gymnasium.

  • Do not smoke cigarettes or electronic cigarettes inside or in close proximity to the building.

  • Do not bring any pets on the site, including the car park. All pets must remain in vehicles at all times.

 

Collection:

• 5 minutes before your child's class finishes, Parents/ Guardians are to go upstairs and wait outside the gymnasium's doors for collection.

• Once a recognisable Parent/ Guardian is present, gymnasts will be dismissed.

• If no recognisable Parent/ Guardian is present upon collection, gymnasts will remain in the gymnasium with at least two members of the 2PRU Team until a Parent/ Guardian is physically present. We have zero tolerance for children being picked up from the car park or any other alternative location.

 

Special arrangements:

• Due to the layout and floor plan of our facility, access to the gymnasium itself is by stairs only. We can accommodate and provide special arrangements for drop off and collection for those individuals who may face accessibility issues.

 

Irregular Collection Protocol:

 

Late collection:

• If you are late to pick up your child, you must contact the club as soon as possible. 

• If there is no contact from a Parent/ Guardian after 10 minutes we will attempt to make contact with you. 

• If we are unsuccessful in making contact with your child’s primary emergency contact we will then immediately attempt to make contact with your child’s second emergency contact. 

• If we are unsuccessful in making contact with either party, we will be required to contact the police. 

• Further instructions will be provided by the police and is dependent on the situation. 

• If 2PRU Gymnastics Club has to make contact with a Parent/ Guardian, this lateness will be recorded and we may charge a lateness fee. Repeated lateness is a serious child safeguarding and welfare issue with your child's place at 2PRU Gymnastics Club being put in jeopardy with repeat offences.

 

Alternative parent/ guardian collection:​

• If you are only dropping off your child and have arranged for another Parent/ Guardian to pick up your child (and vice versa) you must inform a member of the 2PRU Team upon drop off so we can document the name, preferred contact number and relation of this person to your child. Your child's main contact must provide the head coach with a safe code upon drop off and your child's alternative Parent/ Guardian must provide the same safe code to the head coach upon collection. 

• If there is any change in who is collecting your child after the drop off period, please ring the club to inform us of who is now collecting them. If we are unaware of this change, we will contact you immediately to ensure that your child is being collected by the correct person.

• The person who is collecting your child must make themselves known to a member of 2PRU Team upon collection.

 

Early finish:

• If you need your child to leave their gymnastics session early, please inform a member of the 2PRU Team upon dropping your child off so we can make a note of this.

• At the arranged early collection time, please come upstairs into the gymnasium itself and make your presence known.

• If you require special accessibility, please ring the club when you are at the arranged pick up point so that we can bring your child to you.
