About The Venue

Swim! Oldbury opened in 2018 as a modern commercial facility built specifically for children’s swimming education. Bright fluorescent lighting and playful decor with cartoon characters define the space. Floor-to-ceiling windows provide full visibility from changing areas to the pool, where warm-water sessions are maintained at 32°C year-round. Children splashing in small classes keep noise levels high during peak times. The venue includes designated pram parks and lockers for convenience, making it practical for caregivers using the facility during school holidays.
