According to SAO, for your child's safety, the accompanied adult must be around and always ready to help out in very very short time if something happened.

Children below the age of 12 must be accompanied by an adult.  This is in line with practice in public pools in Hong Kong.  The management may request proof of age when necessary.

All those taking swimming lessons do so at their own risk.   All the regulations published by the Students Affairs Office governing the use of the Swimming Pool apply to anyone taking lessons.   These regulations are displayed at the pool.

University ID cards will be required to be presented to the pool attendant. If your child does not have a HKUST ID Card, a guest ticket will need to be purchased.  An adult must accompany all children attending swimming lessons.

Remarks:  According to the UPC policy, no classes will be held if the Red or Black Rainstorm Warning, or Signal 8  (or above) Warning has been hoisted 2 hours or less before the class was scheduled.  In addition, this applies to thunderstorm warning too.  Makeup lessons will be arranged afterwards.
