Lakelands families won’t be traveling far for swimming lessons anymore, after the Lakelands swimming pool opened it’s doors to the public on Saturday.

​

The WestSwim Lakelands heated pool will offer swimming classes for children aged three-months or older, as well as seniors, multi-class, adult learn-to-swim and school students in the area. 

​

Swimming WA chief operating officer Geoff Reid said this was the first facility in the state to have ledges for swimmers to stand on, circling the entire pool. 

​

The Swim School would feature a 25m long concrete pool along with changing facilities housed in a highly architecturally design building envelope using concrete and steel and over-clad with metal cladding to show off the building’s angled elevations.

 

The interior would optimise the feel of space with a vaulted type ceiling to the main pool area and would be air-conditioned and cater for parents with internal and exterior seating and a retail outlet for Swim WA.
