Below is a video of when the Swimming Pool was refurbished in 2020.

Newdegate Swimming Pool

The Newdegate Swimming Pool is located on Mitchell Street alongside the Newdegate Primary School.

The complex has sports a 25 metre-long pool, 12 metres wide and with 6 lanes. The shallow side starts at 1 metre depth and this gradually drops to 1.8 metres on the deep end. There is also a 3.6 metre diving bowl at the deep end.

Other facilities include children/toddler pool, toilets, change room facilities and various shaded and grassed areas.

The Pool is unsupervised and users are expected to be responsible in their usage of the facilities.

During the season, enquiries may be directed to the Newdegate Primary School on 9871 1600 or Shire of Lake Grace on 9890 2500.

For accidents and emergencies contact 000.

Applying for Access

As there is no lifeguard on duty when the Pool is open, prospective users will need to apply for an electronic key to gain access to the Pool and facilities. This is done by arranging a site induction with the pool manager through the Newdegate Primary School and providing evidence of a current Senior First Aid Certificate. Once you have passed those requirements you are required to pay a fee to the Shire to have your electronic key activated (the fee amount is below).

The age limit on the Keyholder Agreement is 18 years and over.

Keyholders may bring only a single visitor with them when using the Pool. Visitors in this way are encouraged to pay an entry fee into the Honesty Box.
