Story

The Oakleigh Recreation Centre, the Clayton Aquatics & Health Club and the Monash Aquatic and Recreation Centre in Glen Waverley offer the Council’s 176,000 residents and those of nearby municipalities’ state of the art recreational facilities and an array of pools to improve community health and activity.

The centres have been deliberately designed to complement one another and maximise their appeal to all sections of the Monash and wider community. The community has embraced the three Council-operated leisure centres as multi-purpose recreational facilities and meeting places.

"Redeveloped in 2020, the facility incorporates a gym, group fitness, indoor multi-purpose courts, state level gymnastics facility as well as seasonal outdoor pools."

Reviews

After the renovations the complex is a delight. On this particularly hot day the pool area was an inviting oasis. There are large grassed areas with shade from trees or shade cloth structures. The 50 metre outdoor pool is divided into public swim and slow, medium and fast lanes. There was plenty of space available for all sorts of aquatic play. There is access to the cafeteria from outside for food and drink. Salt chlorinated water was crystal clear and didn't irritate the eyes. Lifeguards were constantly patrolling the pool area. Children under 10 have a bright yellow wrist band to identify potential poor swimmers.

Friendly service Outdoor pool was not very busy which is great. Lots of grass floaties in the outdoor pool on the day I was there. Lots of aquatic activities for all ages.

Called in the morning for casual hiring, said it was ok; then when I was about to proceed with booking, I was told that I need a two weeks notice for a casual court hiring?. This is due to the need of extra time in setting up and packing up volleyball court which does not make sense who books a court two weeks in advance if you are playing casually, and you literally need two polls and one net which won’t take you more than 5 minutes to set up or pack up. The positive experience from that conversation was that the staff was very apologetic, and I understand that it wasn’t her fault. Better training on court preparation and casual hiring policy are needed.

Enrolled my 3 year old in gymnastics inside the centre Waverly Gymnastics and she loves it. Different activities every week so she is never bored. Only downside is that the car park can get very full.

Waited a long time to use the diving boards here due to the ridiculous rule that they’re not open until the temperature is 30deg. Went today to be told you can only use them hourly after taking a swim test. Waited until the hour, did the swim test then was told we couldn’t dive for the next 15min as there was no lifeguard available. Lifeguard came 20min later to tell us no high boards allowed and not even allowed to dive off the 3m spring board only the 1m springboard. Are they diving boards or jumping boards?! I wouldn’t waste your time or money, this place is pathetic.

Beautiful Pools, Diving Boards and atmosphere! This was my childhood outdoor aquatic centre . Highly recommend for all the familys to enjoy the great outdoors for both swimming and fun.

1They really need to put numbers on the courts so people that haven’t been there know what number each court is.  2 The booking system is terrible, you must let people know which courts are booked, and which brings me to my 1st point have numbers on the courts.  3 I’ve been playing basketball for 20 years and never have I seen or been to a basketball centre rec centre where they don’t have 1 court free at all time for casual shooting. It’s for the public so you really need to honor that obligation. Have 1 court free at all times rather then being money hungry for a booking

All outdoors which means they only open on warm days. But the 50m pool is great.   There are two BBQ Stoves. With water playgrounds and kids play pool, it is a great  place to spend a day with family.

Nice outdoor 50m pool.  Over summer, a morning swim, with the large trees nearby is a really enjoyable experience.  Pity it isn’t open for more of the year.

Basketball haven ... sooo many courts. Also has a 50mtr outdoor pool and large Cafe with indoor and outdoor seating
