Hamley Bridge Swimming Pool
To provide a safe, active play and family orientated environment which will encourage learning, awareness and community spirit.
The Hamley Bridge Swimming Pool Inc is currently run in partnership with Wakefield Regional
Council & local volunteers. The facility has two pools (main and splash pool), and operates between November and March each year. The main pool is 25 meters long and 3.8 meters deep at its deepest end, and includes a diving board, 4 access ladders and easy access steps at the shallow end. The establishment has separate male/female change rooms and bathroom facilities. The canteen sells cold drinks, ice creams, lollies, packs of chips, noodle cups and toasted sandwiches. Volunteers often hold themed food nights and activities during the swimming season at the pool. Keep up to date with events via their Facebook page.
Hamley Bridge Swimming Club was formed in 1908. A shed was erected near a long stretch of water in the light river below White Banks and a large heavy plant was placed across the narrow opening of the swimming area. Yearly carnivals and swimming lessons were held there. The dangers of river swimming were a concern to the community and its members set out to build a modern concrete pool. The land was donated and the community received funding of £1500 from the government, and raised another £1207 through community fundraising and the Bell Bay Motor Racing Carnival. The digging of the pool was done by local volunteers. The Hamley Bridge Swimming Pool officially opened on December 3rd 1960 and was one of the first modern swimming pools in the lower north.
