The Hon. J.A.W. GARDNER House of Assembly Morialta Minister for Education Strathmont Pool The Hon. J.A.W. GARDNER (Morialta—Minister for Education): I am advised: The Department for Education funds the cost of instruction for the water safety program. This is the major cost of the program. Schools and/or parents are responsible for any transport arrangements, transport costs and pool entry costs that may be necessary. A pool entry cost applies to all students, including students with disabilities, at all program venues except for school pools, Strathmont Centre, Minda pool and Novita Regency Park pool. Pool entry fees are set by pool management and generally range from $3 to $4.80 per session. A pool entry fee subsidy has been approved to limit the cost of pool entry for the relocated Strathmont Centre students to $2 per session in the first instance. This fee will increase gradually to the normal entry fee over a five year period. This is consistent with the costs for most other students accessing the Department for Education's water safety program.
