Our eight‑lane, heated pool is kept at a comfortable 29 degrees – perfect for both recreational swimming and dedicated lap swimmers. (Note that lap lane availability may vary depending on bookings and events.) Qualified lifeguards supervise the pool at all times, but all children under 10 must be accompanied by someone aged 16 or over.
The aquatic facilities and swimming programs are available to Federation students and staff, as well as the local community and school groups. You can buy a 12-month membership or pay per casual visit.
