The Arc’s cafe is back to offering their full menu. Any food or drinks not served or finished within the Arc hour can be consumed in the Bistro bar to allow the through clean in between each session. Customers are not permitted to bring their own food or drink - with the exception of water bottles and certain dietary requirements required.

Session 1

10.15-11.00am Zodiac
11.00-12.00 the Arc
Session 3
11.15-12.00pm Zodiac
12.00-13.00pm Arc
Please note that the gap times between the sessions are to allow for both Zodiac and the Arc to do there clean downs to ensure COVID guidelines are met and make play as safe as possible for everyone. To enable Fun Fridays to be possible we would really appreciate if customers could leave both Zodiac Gym and Arc soft play promptly when their session finished. This enables us to sanitise ready for the next session.
We will NOT be taking bookings for these sessions, they will be first come first served. COVID restrictions have reduced our capacity to 20 adults but each adult can have more than one child, but as before, any babies left in their car seat or in a sling won’t be charged.
COVID safety is paramount so we continue to insist any items coming in the Zodiac gym needs to be inside a plastic bag… this includes shoes before putting on shelves or bench.
Food or drink inside the gym is strictly forbidden with the exception of water bottles as long as they stay in the bags in between drinks.
Sessions are for the up to 5’s and The Zodiac session allows full use of all of Zodiac gym, that’s bars, beams, floor and vaults and strict safety rules will apply and adults must remain with their children whilst using gym apparatus.
No shoes or wheels are permitted in the gym or soft play area and please be aware parents/guardians are responsible for children at all times and we expect the responsible adult to be watching their children at all times.
The Arc soft play area has undergone a mini makeover during the various lockdowns and has a whole new under 2 years area for you all to check out. This is an area we restrict to parent and under two’s only and parent supervision is required.
Free parking is available in the car park directly in front of the Arc and also the Weston drive car park beside the Village gym. In the unlikely event that both of the Arc car parks be full we would ask that customers be respectful of bus routes (ensure that buses can pass easily) and please refrain for parking over our neighbours drives and finally double parking should be avoided.
FINALLY…. It’s absolutely essential and non-negotiable - all children must have FUN and enjoy the safe play environment that Zodiac/arc is providing.
Any questions, please get in touch.
