Dive deeper, go further. This is the motto of St. Edward's School, a historic private school in South Florida. The school aims to encourage young people to push their boundaries through sport, group activities, personal development, and community service.
It was precisely this vision that led to the decision to build a new, safer and more modern swimming pool on campus, better suited to the growth of the younger generation. Following structural problems with the original concrete and tile pool, the school planned a complete technical upgrade. Myrtha Pools, with the support of Water Technology Inc. and CEM Aquatics, was the ideal partner to meet these requirements, providing swimmers with a swimming pool that meets current sporting standards and enabling the school to enter teams in competitions. Myrtha pool also ensures a safe, efficient and easily manageable environment for daily teaching programmes.
The choice was also influenced by the quality and safety guarantees and the reduction in management costs thanks to Myrtha technology. The pool comprises two areas: one for training over a distance of 25 metres with a variable depth, and a second area designed for teaching swimming to students ranging from nursery school to high school. The second area is flanked by a two-lane teaching area designed for teaching swimming to students ranging from nursery to high school age.

The modular stainless-steel structure provides a robust and long-lasting alternative to traditional concrete and tiling solutions. In the case of the original facility, these had shown significant limitations over time. With the new facility, Saint Edward's School renews its connection with swimming and reinforces the role of water in its students' athletic training, providing spaces suitable for high-performance training and learning from children to high school age.
