Council provided an update on its facilities and said it was not yet known when Aquamoves, Eastbank and KidsTown would reopen.

At Aquamoves, water only receded from the car park in recent days and concerns remain, with water flowing from the outdoor area on to Tom Collins Dve.

Eastbank also remains closed due to the emergency systems still being out of action.

However, the box office and Encore Café are open to the public, with the front section of the building unaffected by the floods.

It’s not known when the necessary repairs can be carried out, so the auditorium and function rooms remain closed until further notice.

KidsTown is being assessed for damage, including to play equipment.

Council’s Activities in the Park program is also on pause, with no return date available.

Meanwhile, the Shepparton Sport Stadium reopened on November 7.
