Come and make waves together at the aquatic centre on Australia Day this year! The pool is open and the entrance is FREE, you’ll even get a free feed with a traditional Aussie sausage sizzle. All you need to bring are swimmers, towels and sunscreen, and of course your national spirit to celebrate this 26th together with a pool party like no other.
From 9am the pool is open and with activities and entertainment for all the family to enjoy. Jump in the cool waters and enjoy some swimming with your mates, or get your groove on with the live DJ. There will be prizes for those who can seriously bust a move and dance their hearts out.
Outdoor games and activities will also be happening in the pool and on the green. Crafts for the little ones will be available to show off their inspiration and creative skills. Even a bit of touch footy for the bigger kids if the weather holds, parents are encouraged to show a little sporty rivalry and team up against the kids.
During the day, lunch will be provided for free for pool-goers straight from the barbie. A barbeque sausage sizzle will be held from 11:30am to 1:30pm to help fuel you up for more fun in the sun. Just don’t swim straight after you eat, relax to the music or chat with your friends on the grass. Pool-safe practices are always encouraged to help maximise your enjoyment and wellbeing in the water.
The Aquatic Centre has facilities to suit all swimming levels and styles of celebration. Such as a children’s water playground, a 25metre heated pool with disabled access and a 50metre pool that is partly shaded and also has disabled access. Along with plentiful green spaces for picnic rugs and games.
