Aquamotion swims in success at industry awards

The facility took home two major awards, Swim School of the Year and the Aquatic Facility Safety Award, as well as receiving a High Commendation in the prestigious WA Facility of the Year category.

Aquamotion lifeguard Andre Desveaux was also highly commended in the Pool Lifeguard of the Year award, praised for his outstanding customer service and genuine care for regular visitors.

Wanneroo Mayor Linda Aitken said the awards reflect the dedication and commitment of the Aquamotion team in making a difference in our community.

“As a City, we’re proud to provide safe and inclusive facilities for our community. Our use of AI Lifesaving Technology, non-slip floor coating in high-traffic areas and pool pods for inclusive access are a testament to that,” she said.

Mayor Aitken said she was especially proud to see the swim school recognised, for its programs tailored for all ages and abilities from babies as young as three months to adults, including the renowned Dolphin Program for people living with disability.

“The Dolphin program, along with our annual Dolphin Olympics is an integral part of Aquamotion and our wider community – we’re proud to see it recognised at state level,” she said.

These latest honours follow a successful 2024 for Wanneroo Aquamotion, which was named Platinum Waterwise Aquatic Centre of the Year at the Waterwise Recognition Awards and awarded Best Swim School in Australia at the SWIM Australia Awards.
