The new Carss Park Aquatic Centre, on the edge of Kogarah Bay, replaces the former pool that closed in 2019 and brings this much-loved facility back to life.
Following strong community advocacy, the Minns Labor Government partnered with the Federal Government, NSW Public Works and Georges River Council to make the new pool possible, supporting a facility designed for the whole community.
The new pool will feature an 8-lane, 50m outdoor pool, 20 metre x 10 metre outdoor Learn to Swim pool as well as supporting amenities and infrastructure, providing the community with a modern facility for recreation, exercise and competition.
Sustainability is embedded in the design, with water-efficient systems and water-recycling strategies that reduce environmental impact and protect the health of the bay.
Our design is defined by undulating forms that respond to the parkland landscape, creating an open, welcoming environment closely connected to the bay. Generous circulation and gathering spaces extend the experience beyond the pools, encouraging people to meet, linger and enjoy the space. The aquatic centre celebrates the community’s connection to this place while providing a resilient, inclusive and long-lasting public asset.
