About
Yea Swimming Pool, located in the picturesque town of Yea in Victoria, offers a refreshing oasis for locals and visitors alike. As one of the swimming pools managed by Murrindindi Shire Council, Yea Swimming Pool is a popular destination during the hot Australian summers.
With the 2023-2024 season fast approaching, Yea Swimming Pool is excited to announce that it will be free for all visitors during this period. Opening its doors on Saturday 18 November 2023 and closing on Monday 11 March 2024, the pool provides a much-needed reprieve from the heat.
Weather conditions play a crucial role in determining the pool's opening hours. If the Bureau of Meteorology predicts a temperature of 23 degrees Celsius or above, the pool will be open for everyone to enjoy. However, Yea Swimming Pool is dedicated to providing opportunities for morning lap swimming and school or swim club bookings, regardless of the forecast. The final decision to remain open will be at the discretion of the Operations Officer, taking into account air temperature and patron numbers.
Private bookings, such as swimming clubs, have the privilege of utilising the pool outside the regular opening hours, ensuring exclusive access to the facilities. It's important to note that all pools, including Yea Swimming Pool, will be closed on Christmas Day, allowing staff and visitors to celebrate this special holiday with their loved ones.
To stay up to date with the latest information and pool opening hours, visitors are encouraged to follow the Murrindindi Shire Council's Facebook page or contact their helpful customer service team at (03) 5772 0333.
Yea Swimming Pool takes the safety and well-being of its patrons seriously. All visitors are expected to comply with the conditions of entry, ensuring a safe and enjoyable environment for everyone. Additionally, the pool has a hot weather policy in place, which may result in closure or limited access during extreme heat conditions. This is done to prioritise the health and safety of swimmers.
Yea Swimming Pool also offers learn to swim programmes, providing a wonderful opportunity for individuals of all ages and skill levels to enhance their swimming abilities. These programmes are led by experienced instructors who create a supportive and nurturing environment for learners.
For those looking to host a special event or celebrate a milestone, Yea Swimming Pool is available for aquatic facility hire. Whether it's a birthday party, corporate gathering, or school excursion, the pool's facilities offer a unique and memorable setting for any occasion.
As part of the rich and diverse community of Murrindindi Shire, Yea Swimming Pool is proud to provide a place where people can come together, socialise, and enjoy the benefits of swimming. It acknowledges and respects the traditional owners of the land, the Taungurung and Wurundjeri people, and is committed to working alongside them in a spirit of reconciliation and partnership.
So, whether you're seeking a refreshing escape from the summer heat, looking to improve your swimming skills, or planning an unforgettable event, Yea Swimming Pool is the perfect destination for you. Come and dive into the tranquilly and enjoyment that the pool has to offer.
