With a gym, creche, pool, team sports and fitness classes under one roof, the Recquatic is a fantastic asset to the Kwinana community and surrounding areas,

City of Kwinana Mayor Carol Adams said.

“The Recquatic Open Day is a great opportunity to get to know the centre while enjoying free family activities throughout the day.

“No other fitness facility in the area offers a creche service along with access to so many different fitness programs and classes.

“The creche is also open later some evenings, allowing even greater flexibility for busy parents.”

The Recquatic Open Day is free for members and non-members.

The fun will start from noon.
