Main Pool Hall to reopen Monday 11 August

Updated 8 August, 1pm  

Great news! PARC’s Main Pool Hall is reopening early on Monday 11 August

We’re thrilled to share that the Main Pool Hall will reopen one week earlier than planned, on Monday 11 August!

Thanks to a smooth and speedy installation of our brand-new boiler system, we’ve been able to bring the reopening forward and get you back in the water sooner.

We’re reopening one full week earlier than planned thanks to the early arrival of parts and the smooth installation and commissioning of our new 600-kilowatt boiler. This upgraded system will provide more consistent heating across our pools and showers.

SERVICES:

What’s reopening on Monday 11 August?

  • 50m Pool – lap swimming, PARC Swim, Aqua classes and user groups return
  • Learn to Swim Pool – PARC Swim returns
  • Waterslides – fun is back!
  • Showers – are hot and flowing
  • Café – back to normal hours (8am – 7pm weekdays, 8am – 5pm weekends)

What’s reopening later?

  • Aquatic Playground – repaint works remain on track to finish in time for planned reopen on Saturday 16 August
  • Sauna – The Sauna is closed for tiling upgrades, 

What’s already open?
All other areas of the Centre, including the Warm Water Pool, Spa, Gym, Reformer Studio, and Group Exercise Rooms, continue to operate as normal.

What does this mean for me?

I’m a Full Access or an Aquatic Access Member

  • We are back to normal operations from Monday 11 August.
  • Lap swimming is back!
  • Showers are hot.
  • If your suspension was due to end on 18 August and you wish to come back sooner, please email member.experience@peninsulaleisure.com.au or call 03 9781 8444.

I’m a PARC Swim Member

  • All PARC Swim lessons, in both the 50m and Learn to Swim Pools, are back from Monday 11 August.
  • PARC Swim members were not charged for the period of the closure.

I’m part of a User Group

  • We are working with our main group contacts directly.
  • Please look out for communications from your group as to when sessions are back at PARC.

Thank you for your understanding

We’d like to thank you all for your patience and support during this important boiler replacement. We know these pool closures have been disruptive, and we can’t wait to welcome you back to a warmer, more comfortable PARC!

If you have any questions, please get in touch with us at member.experience@peninsulaleisure.com.au

Upcoming HVAC improvement works 🚧👷

We are undertaking two important HVAC improvement projects at PARC from Monday 5 October to Friday 16 October.

Rust Air Duct Rectification Works
We`ll be replacing sections of our air ducting that supplies fresh air to our Group Exercise studios. A section of the corridor near the studios will be temporarily closed, with some lockers unavailable while works are underway. Access to Studio 2 and all Group Exercise classes will remain available as normal, with no classes impacted.

Warm Water Pool Accessible Changeroom Ventilation Upgrade
The accessible changerooms in Warm Water Pool area will be temporarily closed from Monday 5 – Friday 16 October as we install additional fresh air supply systems to both. Alternative accessible change facilities are available in the Family Change area as well as upstairs, which is accessible via the elevator. Our team will be on hand to assist members who require support.

Thank you for your patience and support as we invest in your PARC experience.
