Swimming Pools

Swimming Pools

Public swimming pools are located either at major population centres within the municipality (Swan Hill, Robinvale, Nyah), or at a key geographic location (Manangatang).  All of the pools are outdoor facilities available to the public during the summer, the period of peak demand. The price structure is set to encourage use of the facilities by all sectors of the community.

Outdoor Swimming Pools

Council provides outdoor aquatic facilities to the communities of Manangatang, Nyah, Robinvale and Swan Hill.  The facilities at each pool generally consist of swimming pools (of various sizes) for both recreational and sporting activities, changing rooms, kiosk, and public open space for users and spectators.

The Swan Hill Outdoor Pool also consists of a large and popular water slide.

The pools are operated in accordance with industry guidelines (Royal Life Saving Society “Guidelines for Safe Pool Operation”), and legislation (Health and Infectious Diseases Regulations (2001)).

The operation of the pools is undertaken by either a contractor (Swan Hill and Robinvale), or by a community committee (Manangatang and Nyah).  The operator is responsible for ensuring that the pool is staffed with appropriately qualified personnel, that the water is treated to current legislation standard and provides the required level of cleanliness and user comfort, and that the facilities are kept in a clean and tidy condition.

Ongoing maintenance of the pool facility is undertaken on a scheduled basis to ensure the continued efficient and safe operation of the four facilities.
