1 / 3Te Awamutu Events Centre
đ Te Awamutu, Waikato
A spacious, affordable local pool with a hydroslide, spas and basketball courts. Great for kids who love a slide, with genuinely helpful front counter staff.
First time visiting Aquatic Centre took the kids really enjoyed it we drive over from Hamilton even though their heat pump had broken down in December water was stone cold but very refreshing we all decided to hydroslide for an hour was so much fun as been there early we didn't have to que the little toddlers swimming pool had a little bit of heat In side, it was nice to warm up there with the kids. Bathrooms in good condition and clean. Spa pool is closed due to maintenance. Parking outfront we saw broken glass so lock up your vehicles, would recommend the centre for swimming and sports events. Quite nice and spacious lots of room it's not as packed and crowded. There is one hydroslide to use. There are blue and yellow square boxes they open you can put your shoes and bags whilst you training or enjoying your aquatic play. They very well laid out for Lane swimming and training both children and adults how to swim. There were lifeguards out watching the kids swimming and the adult swimming we felt safe and I noticed at 11 there was a shift change and more came on the floor
đ Family Action Verdict
If you've got kids who love a hydroslide and want an affordable, spacious swim without the crowds, this is a solid pick, and the front counter staff are genuinely helpful. Just know that a couple of parents flagged lifeguards being distracted, so keep your own eyes on the little ones, and don't expect the changing rooms to always be spotless.

âKids love every everything about the centre, but as a parent, the lack of life guard supervision is concerning. Usually stationed together in the center of the complex, you'll see them chatting away together flipping their drink bottles- rarely putting any eyes on the pools. On 2 occasions now, I have seen children needing attention/ assistance (I know it is the parents responsibility too) and the lifeguards on duty have missed/ignored the situation. Ladies on the front counter always wonderful and helpful. Changing/ toilet rooms usually dirty and smelly. Spa is lovely, great cafe next door. Hurts me to write these negative points, because we have such a great pool facility in our town.â

Overview
The kind of local aquatic centre families drive over from Hamilton for: pools, spas, a hydroslide the kids will queue for again and again, plus basketball courts and space to gather for birthdays. The front desk staff get a lot of love for being friendly and helpful, and it rarely feels packed. Worth keeping your own eyes on the little ones though, as a few parents flagged lifeguards seeming distracted, and the changing rooms aren't always spotless.
