More splash time! PINES season extended until Sunday 19 April

We’re excited to share some splash-tastic news with our Pines community…  We will be extending the 2025/2026 summer season until Sunday 19 April! 

Typically, our beloved outdoor PINES pool operates from November 1 to March 31. This year, after what has been another record breaking season, we’re delighted to keep the gates open for the April School Holiday period. 

A big thank you to Frankston City Council for their support in making this extension possible, keeping our community active and splashing into April.

Our regular opening hours will remain in place, except for Good Friday when we’ll be closed, and there will be adjusted public holiday hours for the Easter long weekend. 

Pines Centre leader Chiara McAuley is thrilled to be welcoming our PINES community into April. “We are super excited to be extending the PINES season, allowing greater access to our wonderful PINES community. We are looking forward to seeing everyone making the most of this much loved pool across the Easter school holidays.” 

A big thank you goes out to our incredible PINES community for another wonderful season. We can’t wait to see you all enjoying yourselves by the pool in April.

Survey: What do you gain from attending our facilities?

At Peninsula Leisure, we know our facilities are more than places to swim, workout, take a class or recover. They’re spaces where people build healthy lifestyles, confidence and connection.

This year, we’re inviting you to take part in a new kind of survey, one that goes beyond facilities and timetables. We want to understand how attending PARC:

💪 Impacts your physical health and mental wellbeing
💙 Helps you feel connected to community
⭐️ Adds value to you or your family’s life

Your answers will help us measure the value to our community and the real-world impact of our programs and spaces. We want to hear from everyone – Peninsula Leisure is a child-friendly organisation, and we’re especially keen to hear from young people.

The survey is open until 26 April 2026 and will take around 10 minutes. Participants can go in the draw to win 1 of 3 x $100 Rebel Sport vouchers! Complete the survey via the link in our bio.

Thank you for helping us build an even stronger, healthier community 💙
