Cardinia Life reaches platinum status

Pakenham’s local pool has reached the peak of water safety with Life Saving Victoria awarding it platinum status.

Cardinia Life underwent a series of assessments over a year to determine the level of safety standards and recently it was given a Platinum Status accreditation in Aquatic Excellence.

Life Saving Victoria runs the Platinum Pool Program to promote high-quality safety and risk management in aquatic centres.

The program requires participating facilities to adhere to a strict code of practice in general life-saving and water safety management.

Cardinia Life was endorsed last financial year and now has full accreditation.

“A prestigious recognition reserved for aquatic facilities that demonstrate outstanding safety and risk management standards,” the aquatic centre said in a facebook post.

“This achievement reflects our ongoing commitment to providing a safe, welcoming and high-quality experience for our community.”
