It’s time to have your say on the future of The Sunbury Aquatic and Leisure Centre.
Built in 1966, starting with the outdoor 50m pool, the centre has been upgraded over the years:
- 1989 an indoor pool was built
- 2006 a gym extension was added
- 2018 a warm water pool was constructed
- 2025 a new outdoor waterplay area will be completed
Despite this, the town is growing rapidly with an additional 62,490 residents forecast to call Sunbury home by 2046.
Hume City Council is now looking for ideas to improve the centre that’s been plagued with pool closures and shutdowns.
Fixing a leaking indoor pool at the Ligar St complex cost ratepayers more than $500,000 last year, and a council promise to open the outdoor heated pool this winter has been broken – due to maintenance issues at the centre.
Council is now inviting everyone in the Sunbury and broader Hume community to have their say on The Sunbury Aquatic and Leisure Centre Master Plan.
Whether you’re a:
- Local Sunbury resident
- Member of the gym
- Participate in group fitness classes
- Participate in swim lessons
- Casual pool user
- Or interested in the development of the facility
Council’s online feedback form is open until Sunday 25 May 2025. Click here to have your say (part 3 is relevant to Sunbury).
