Heated pools on the Magic?

We are thinking of doing the transatlantic cruise leaving from Dover in September 2018. I am just wondering if the pools are the ship are heated? I imagine it won't be super warm out and my niece an nephew with be devastated if they can't swim!
Thanks.

They heat the pools if the air temps are below 75F. We used the family pool on the Wonder on our Alaskan cruise last summer, air temps in the high 50's, low 60's. Pool was nice and warm! The worst part is getting out--so DD and I went from the pool to the hot tub, got overly warm there and then had no trouble getting out! Oh, and the good thing is with cooler air temps, there are fewer people in the pool!

Yes the pools are heated below 75F as @Geomom said. The hot tubs are always heated so while that may not constitute as swimming, they're always an option.
