TALE OF TWO POOLS

AFTER a few hot summers

for swimmers who loved Parramatta and

during their closures, relief is on the way. Just a day apart, the refurbished Wentworthville pool opened and

spectacular Parramatta Aquatic Centre. Both communities have been without a pool since 2017, the Parramatta Memorial Pool demolished to make way for Bankwest Stadium and the previous Holroyd Council wanting to close the tired Wenty pool rather than refurbish it. After a bit of

But the service was told at the end of last year by the Department of Communities and Justice that they had missed out on funding, in favour of more “targeted” youth programs.
