As part of the ‘Building the Education Revolution’ (BER) program, the Narbethong Special School was granted permission for the construction of a heated pool. Baldwin Aquatic was engaged by the main contractor, Broad Constructions, to provide a design and construct package for the 11m x 5m training pool.
Due to the school’s location in a flood area, the pool had to be raised 5m above ground level, to what is effectively the second story of the school building. The pool is heated and fully tiled in Metz KlinkerSire tiles.
