Parking Reminder for Northcote Parents
Please ensure you head into this year continuing to only park in our 18 marked Twisters car spaces, and keep other parking spaces available for other businesses.
If there are no parkings spaces available, there are plenty of spots out on Beavers Road or nearby residential streets. We would suggest parking on Beavers Road and walking into the gym, especially whilst we’re in the midst of sunshine, summer, and daylight savings. Alternatively, we have our 5 minute pick up/drop off parking spaces where you can drop your child off and pick them up after class.
Download The iClass Pro App
If you haven’t already, we kindly request that you download the iClassPro App from your app store to be able to manage the majority of your requests.
👉 Make sure you search for ‘The iClassPro App’, then once downloaded, ensure you enter the correct organisation name, which is ‘twistersgym’ (it needs to be spelled out exactly like this, otherwise you may end up at a Twisters in Canada).

Child Pick-Up Process
Your children are safe at Twisters!
If you are late to pick up your child, please do not panic. Our coaches will ensure every child in their class has been picked up by a grown up, if they have not been collected at the end of class, the coach will advise our front desk who will sit with your child until you arrive.
If there’s no one on the front desk, then our Floor Leader will keep an eye on your child, and if that’s not possible, don’t worry, your child will sit inside the gym with their coach while they wait for you.
If it has been longer than 10 minutes since your child’s class finished and you haven’t arrived, our coaches or a member of our admin staff will contact you to see where you are. You don’t need to worry about contacting our office, we will be sure to get in touch!
