Labor Commits $1 Million to Leichhardt Park Aquatic Centre Upgrades
This investment will ensure that the pool continues to be enjoyed by our local swimmers and families for generations to come.
An Albanese Labor Government will invest $1 million to upgrade Leichhardt Park Aquatic Centre in Sydney’s Inner West.
The upgrades will include a landscaped Waterplay area with BBQs and a shared recreation space. The Waterplay area will include;
-
A combination of waterplay features allowing interactive aquatics play, as well as seating, grassed areas and biodiverse plants.
-
a zero-depth water play area where children can play safely.
-
Accessible design features ensuring inclusivity for all.
This important contribution will complement commitments already made by the Inner West Council to upgrade the Aquatic Centre.
“I am delighted to announce this funding for upgrades to Leichhardt Park Aquatic Centre,” Anthony Albanese, Member for Grayndler and Leader of the Australian Labor Party, said.
“The Inner West community has embraced upgrades to Dawn Fraser Baths and the Ashfield Aquatic Centre. I’m sure the local community will benefit from these upgrades just as much.”
“Leichhardt Park Aquatic Centre is a fantastic facility and community hub which has been enjoyed since 1961. This investment will ensure that the pool continues to be enjoyed by our local swimmers and families for generations to come.”
