Lake Parramatta’s swimming season<br />
opened on Saturday. <strong>The</strong> opening<br />
saw lifeguard patrols return to<br />
the Lake which was reopened for<br />
swimming four years ago, after a<br />
significant investment and many<br />
hours of work by Council.<br />
Lord Mayor Andrew Wilson said the opening is an<br />
important milestone for the ‘Our Living River’ initiative,<br />
which aims to make unusable sections of the Parramatta<br />
River swimmable again.<br />
“Since reopening in 2015, Parramatta Lake has become<br />
a favourite recreation spot for tens of thousands<br />
of people,” Lord Mayor Wilson said.<br />
“This wonderful location brings the community out in<br />
droves for swimming, bushwalking and barbecues.<br />
“Lake Parramatta is a valuable local recreational asset<br />
and the natural setting, free entry and on-site parking<br />
means everyone can enjoy a great day out and cool<br />
off during the hot summer months.”<br />
Members of the Australian Lifeguard Service will patrol<br />
the lake’s buoyed-off section from 9am to 6pm on<br />
weekends, public holidays and school holidays until<br />
March 31.<br />
While Council takes the necessary precautions to<br />
make swimming safe, swimmers are advised to check<br />
conditions before entering, and to follow any precautions<br />
displayed at the swimming area.<br />
On Sunday, Masters Swimming NSW held its first Trial<br />
Open Water Swim at the Lake, with 25 adult swimmers<br />
of all ages taking to the water despite cool conditions.<br />
Set in a 73-hectare reserve, the Lake Parramatta<br />
site features non-motorised boating facilities (such as<br />
kayaks, stand-up paddle boards, pedal boats and row<br />
boats), a children’s playground, walking trails, public<br />
toilets, picnic facilities, barbecues and a weekend kiosk.<br />

A right royal visit to<br />
Parramatta school!<br />
Prince Harry and his bride Meghan visited Macarthur<br />
Girls High School in Parramatta on Friday.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Duke and Duchess of Sussex were treated<br />
to a dance performance, appropriately named<br />
‘<strong>The</strong> Power of Love’, and visited the school library<br />
where they learnt about a Year Nine project on social<br />
justice.<br />
It was only a 30-minute visit but the pupils were<br />
blown away.<br />
“When they walked in I felt like my heart stopped<br />
and their presence just made everyone shocked,”<br />
student Rhiannon said.<br />
