To provide a cost-effective heated pool in a venue that can be utilised twelve months a year for the health, wellbeing, and safety of all Murrindindi residents.
This will give our communities the opportunity to participate in group and personalised water activities and swimming lessons for all ages.
This may include and is not limited to physical therapy, water aerobics, water yoga and scuba diving lessons.
This project came about from a community meeting in 2015 when a local facility was no longer available. A group of parents decided to solve the challenge by researching options and holding community consultations.
This will benefit the community by providing learning to swim classes for all children in our region and enabling our elderly citizens of all abilities with an opportunity to engage in health and wellness by way of water therapy. Our residents currently have to travel more than 2 hours to access valuable therapy. Our children only have access to seasonal pools for Learn to Swim programs and many currently travel outside the region to access water safety programs in the winter months. Many parents choose not to participate in Learn to Swim due to the distance needed to access programs.

This would definately be a huge asset for our shire. Swimming lessons for our kids really are a must and to be able to access hydrotherapy and water based exercise classes would be a game changer.
Well needed in a rural community with so many young familes and waterways close by.
This pool would be good for so many reasons. Most of all the health benefits, for people like myself that can't do much exercise due to pain in there joints, this would be wonderful.
It would be a wonderful asset for young and old.
I think a heated pool would go to great use!
1. Children can learn to swim.
2. I work in with lots of people who need hydrotherapy. And there is no where close enough for them to travel to!
It would defiantly go to good use.
Our kids need a pool to learn to swim. We have so much water in this area and it's very concerning the number of children who can't swim
Desperately need this pool for our kids so they can learn to swim!
👍🏼
A much needed facility for young and old to keep the community fit and healthy all year round irrespective of the weather.
