Magnolia Club Bookings
- Details
- Created on Wednesday, 06 September 2017 15:38
A friendly reminder that there have been a couple of changes relating to bookings at the Magnolia Club.
These changes include:
The Alfresco Room will remain locked unless booked as at Mon 11 Sept to help protect the room from damage. All residents who have booked the room will be contacted prior to their booking to remind them to collect the key from reception on the day of their booking. See the Booking FAQs for further details of these procedures. We have also removed the arm chairs & coffee table from the Alfresco Room and placed the large table & chairs from main room into the Alfresco Room.
Table 1 now cannot be booked in the Magnolia Club, however residents are still welcome to use the space whenever it’s available on the day, provided you have also not booked the Alfresco Room on that same day. Current weekday perpetual bookings of Table 1 are encouraged to contact Loretta to organise the continuation of their group meetings/activity sessions.

A reminder that the developers will be providing an update on the Michelia Club at the upcoming Community Association meeting and residents will be advised afterwards via the Meeting Outcomes document. Also please note that Harrington Lifestyle Services is not involved in the management or the construction of the Michelia Club whilst in this development phase, but we will endeavour to provide the community with progress updates whenever we receive them from the developers.
Pools Opening Fri 15 Sept

With the warmer weather heading our way, both the Magnolia and Country Club pools will be opening a week earlier than previously advertised. The covers are now on the pool to assist in warming up the water naturally to help reduce the heating costs when it’s time to turn the heat switch on! Pools are usually heated to a temperature of 25 degrees, so the water can still be quite brisk for casual swimming in the first few weeks of Spring – not that the kids will notice though!
Gym Updates

Air Conditioning in the Gym -
Every week we receive many requests for the temperature of the gym to be set to a certain level, but unfortunately these requests vary enormously between individuals. Please note that the temperature of all gyms at any complex are always programmed to be at a set level and that we follow the guidelines as recommended by the International Fitness Association. Although we try to please as many gym users as possible, we unfortunately can’t please everyone, so we have set the temperature to the most requested level within the above guidelines until the end of winter and will re-evaluate from there. You also may have noticed that the air conditioning controls are now locked, as some gym users were adjusting the settings to their own personal preferences. This resulted in many complaints being received about the fluctuating temperatures inside the gym.
Hopefully this clarifies the actions we’ve taken recently in the gym and that they contribute to a more comfortable workout for the majority of our gym users!
Free Gym Inductions – new times now available!
We have listened to your feedback and we have now set up a number of free Group Gym Inductions at different times in the coming months. The inductions are run by our personal trainers and include a tutorial on how to safely use the gym equipment in addition to a free initial exercise program. All the details are on the above linked flyer, so be sure to book in soon as places are limited!
Gym CCTV Reviews
Frequent reviews of our camera footage shows there are still a few residents opening the emergency exit doors within the gym. To avoid installing expensive audible alarms on these doors &/or suspending individual gym memberships, we’d ask all gym users to follow the clear signs on these doors and refrain from opening them whilst in the gym. Also if you do see the door open, please either close it yourself &/or let reception know asap. Thanks so much!
New Gym Timetable
The gym timetable has been reviewed and now includes the all new Energy HIIT class to take place on a Friday morning. Energy HIIT is open to everyone and is sure to get your blood pumping with short intense bursts of cardio training that will help you to burn fat, increase strength and improve your overall cardiovascular health. Remember all group fitness classes are free to residents, so why not give one a go! Click here to see the new timetable.
