Swim Carnival Schedule

Published on 29 January 2025

Monash Aquatic & Recreation Centre and Oakleigh Recreation Centre host school swim carnivals typically from November through to March each year.

We accommodate approximately 30 carnivals at each site over the Summer season. Most carnivals are scheduled during school times, on weekdays, with the occasional carnival held on weekends, or outside of standard school times.

As a Council facility we recognise the importance of providing opportunities for young people to participate in aquatic-based programs in a safe environment. Swim carnivals are a great way for students to have exposure to aquatics facilities for sporting and recreational purposes.
