Thomastown Recreation & Aquatic Centre

Ok leisure centre, friendly staff. Facilities a bit dated. Warm water pool too small for number of patrons. Prices should lower.$8.20 for concession swim with locker hire is not competitive.

TRAC swimming and recreation pool area is currently undergoing maintenance inside the disabled access rooms. Benches have been replaced with sturdy alternatives. Lovely pools, flat floor, wheelchair friendly access into the building and into the water, with a hoist lift to assist with moving immobile patients into the hydrotherapy pool. Loved seeing the accessible change rooms getting some much needed attention.We are at this pool weekly for nearly 2 hours, and we may see anywhere between 5 and 10 visitors with a wheelchair during our time. If you are looking for a place for accessible hydrotherapy, with large change rooms and trolleys to assist with dressing and undressing, consider this place.

At this place there is:- a gym- showers- a spa- a sauna- pools- warm pool- cold pool (deeper)- Change roomsthe gym is ok but its kinda intimidating when you see all of the tatooed men with huge muscles.The showers are good. there are outside ones and ones in the change rooms. if you want to wash the swimming pool chlorine off.The spa is somewhere that i would not go. There's always about a billion old men in it and its disgusting.I have never been in the sauna but it looks pretty good.The pools are amazing. there is the very shallow kids' pool, the warm pool (about a metre high i would say(not sure)) is good for toddlers and young children to learn to swim in. The deep pool (the biggest pool there is (also coldest)) can get very crowded in the area that anyone can go in. There are lap lanes for people who are slow, medium and fast in their swimming, and then there are the lanes used for the lessons.There is a student change room if school students (being sent by the school) are using the pools. There is a mens and womens change room. they both have showers in them. They have toilets and (the men's change room) has urinals.There are the family change rooms which are separate to the other ones so that a family can get changed in the same room. This makes it easier if you have young children. They also have nappy changing things.Finally, there are the disabled change rooms. like the family ones, have baby nappy change things. They are good for people in wheelchairs to use.

Stoked with the results I've been able to achieve at the gym with the support of PT David in such a short period of time. He has given very clear guidance within gym routines, been caring, patient, outcome driven but also very reasonable upon expectations. This separates previous experiences from privatised gyms and makes this a special community gym.

The creche/occasional care at TRAC is amazing. The staff have provided over 6 years of care to my children. My children have always felt safe, nurtured, engaged and a great sense of belonging at this centre. It’s been a second home to them. The staff are amazing and do an excellent job engaging with my children and providing them the highest quality of care. Can’t thank you enough. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Can’t complain in terms of availability of parking and gym equipment on site but management seems all but inclined in cashing in on getting as many new joinees as possible. The quality has gone downhill, fans and AC can be not working for days and also the maintenance of equipment is lacking. People who have come for other bookings seem to walk into the gym unchecked and sometimes in slippers, topless or barefoot. There are plenty of “offers” for new members but existing ones get a spike in the membership fees but no added benefit. Overcrowded in the evenings. People taking extra runners and have them laying them around on the floor for some unknown reason - they are supposed to go into the lockers but staff turn a blind eye.

I tried this pool today for the first time. Moving from Fawkner due to its shutdown.Reception asked for my contact details so that someone would call me later to get feedback, which I thought was great.Facility was good although there was a couple of items I wanted to mention including a broken shower head.A man called me an hour later during my business hours and asked for feedback. I started to provide a few items of objective feedback. 30 secs in the call, the guy says something to the effect of: call us back to give feedback, thank you. And he hanged up.That rudeness put me off joining particularly that I did not ask for the call and I was nice enough (perhaps naive) to provide my contact mobile and email!!Will look elsewhere!

I wish i could give them Negative rating, 90% of there staff is racist. Me and my friends went to play volleyball and they didn’t told us that court is booked, when we all payed for our casual entries which was around $90 for all then they are telling us that you can’t play court is booked, then we went to gym and lady incharge there was so rude and racist. It’s a good place to go, but staff is pretty much low grade.

Very busy place on a hot day!Facilities need a clean as I noticed mould on the roof in the steam room and a build up of a white substance on the children's equipment, but it was still well maintained. Clean changing rooms and toilets.The prices were good too.All in all, a good visit!
