In accordance with Department of Health guidelines, the City has closed the Olympic pool system at the Kardinia Aquatic Centre, which services the Olympic pool, dive pool, waterslide and kids splash pool.
A diarrhoeal faecal incident has occurred in the Olympic pool system, requiring staff to apply a particular treatment regime to ensure the facilities are safe for use by the community.
We estimate that these facilities will be closed until at least 2pm tomorrow (Saturday 14 January). The team will update the Kardinia Aquatic Centre Facebook page with a precise time for reopening.
The FINA 50 metre pool remains open as it has a separate circulatory system and has not been affected by the incident.
We apologise for any inconvenience this partial closure may cause.
Members have reciprocal access to five other Swim Sport & Leisure centres as alternatives: Leisurelink, Waterworld, Lara Aquatic Centre, Bellarine Aquatic & Sports Centre and Splashdown.
