Extended Summer Fun at The Pines! Season extended until 14 April

We’re thrilled to share some exciting news: We will be extending the summer season at Pines Forest Aquatic Centre until Sunday, April 14!

Typically, our beloved outdoor Pines Pool operates from November 1 to March 31 each summer. This year, due to overwhelming community support and high visitor numbers, we’re delighted to keep the gates open for the April School Holiday period.

Our regular opening hours will remain in place, except for Good Friday when we’ll be closed, and adjusted public holiday hours for the Easter long weekend.

We extend our gratitude and thanks to Frankston City Council for their support in making this possible. Together, we’re committed to fostering a happy, active, and connected community.

The success of this season is a testament to our Peninsula Leisure team and their commitment to our values. We are proud of and thank everyone that has supported and been a part of the season so far. 

Finally, a big thank you goes out to our incredible PINES community for making this past season truly exceptional. We can’t wait to see you all enjoying the extended summer vibes by the pool until the second week of April!

Join us, Pines Passionates, for even more summer fun – we’re eager to welcome you for an extended season of enjoyment, recreation and activity! See you at the pool!

It's Men's Health Week! 🏋️‍♂️

We wanted to take a moment, and share some ideas on how to incorporate more movement into your day: 
🚶 Go for a walk after a meal
⚡️Use the stairs instead of the elevator 
💼 If you work at a desk, try and get up and move or stretch every 30 minutes
💪 Aim to do two strength sessions per week 
😄 Exercise with friends!
