Oakleigh Recreation Centre

Great place! Have been looking for a place that does swimming lessons for kids with special needs & they have a separate program. The outdoor pools are fantastic you have everything from jumping boards(rare these days) standard big pool, little pool with great disabled access & even a little impressive shaded pool/splash pad area even a little pirate ship play equipment!

Outdoor 50m pool opens in Summer and is not too crowded, so great for lap swimming. The pool is clean and bright with plenty of trees surrounding to make for a pleasant swim. Staff are friendly. There is also a diving pool and kids wading pools in the large outdoor space. Inside there is also a cafe with lots of table seating and a gym. Change rooms are spacious and clean.

Very nice pool, shame its only open in summer. Water can be a bit cloudy at times, Noble Park better for laps as less busy and has better shade.

Parking is a major problem, even late Saturday evening struggled to find a park front or rear of centre. Great modern facilities, pools, basketball stadiums, gymnastics school, all keeping it very busy. Hopefully it gains more council funding for expansion.

A dollar per tomato sauce 5.5 for 2 potato cakes, advertises as 2.5 The lasy there is not too polite and doesn’t wash her hands after handling cash. I think there should be some limits on pricing and guidance, Wild West 6.3 for the drink what a joke 450ml From every corner they get ya
