Peninsula Leisure Centre change room upgrades

Construction works continue to improve the change room, shower and toilet facilities at Peninsula Leisure Centre.  The work schedule remains on track for completion in December 2025, ready for the busy holiday season.

The program of works has included full demolition, removal of outdated fittings and fixtures, and necessary structural repairs and once complete the facility will offer:
•    3 new family change rooms
•    Renovated male and female showers and change facilities
•    Updated accessible change rooms
•    New ventilation system

To ensure that the valued community pool could remain open while works were underway, only the worksite area was closed off and the other changerooms in the facility remain open.  We have brought in portable change rooms and bathrooms to accommodate the increased visitation now that the weather is warmer. 

We thank members and pool visitors for their patience during the construction period and look forward to showcasing the improved facilities.

We know that sometimes the site looks like work isn’t underway but don’t worry – it’s all progressing and advancing rapidly.  With such a large wet area, the tile floor and wall preparation and waterproofing needed over a week to cure and much of the work is behind the scenes!  The contractor was engaged following a tender process in line with the rigour of Council’s procurement framework against predetermined evaluation criteria to identify the submission that provides the best value for money for ratepayers, and also that they can be delivered within the timeframe for the scope of works.
