Important Gym Hours Update for April – Closed Wednesday, 16th April

Kia ora,

The UC Rec Centre will be closed on Wednesday, 16th April due to significant maintenance work on the Rec Centre and Warehouse. During this time, there will be no water supply, affecting drinking water, bathrooms, showers, and handwashing facilities. As it would not be hygienic or safe to operate under these conditions, the gym must remain closed for the day. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding.

Please also take note of our updated hours for the Easter and ANZAC Day period:

  • Thursday, 17th April: Open
  • Friday, 18th April (Good Friday): Closed
  • Saturday, 19th April (Easter Saturday): Normal hours
  • Sunday, 20th April (Easter Sunday): Normal hours
  • Monday, 21st April (Easter Monday): Limited hours (8 AM – 12 PM and 4 PM – 8 PM)
  • Tuesday, 22nd April (University holiday): Limited hours (8 AM – 12 PM and 4 PM – 8 PM)
  • Wednesday, 23rd April: Normal hours
  • Thursday, 24th April: Normal hours
  • Friday, 25th April (ANZAC Day): Open from 1 PM – 8 PM

Thank you for your cooperation. We look forward to seeing you at the gym!
