Schools in the Hunter region will participate in a new trial program which sees their playgrounds, ovals and sports courts be open to the public during the summer holidays.
More than 40 schools across NSW will also take part as it encourages people to use the facilities to exercise and have a fun time during the holidays.
Schools participating from the HUNTER include:
- Kurri Kurri Public School
- Maitland Public School
- Redhead Public School
- Lambton Public School
- Muswellbrook Public School
- Wangi Wangi Public School
- Belmont High School
- Hunter School of Performing Arts
The participating schools will receive a bonus grant of $15,000 to help upgrade and improve their facilities for the communities, and the schools, use.
These schools will be open between the hours of 8am and 6pm from the 23rd December and will finish late January when school goes back for 2018.
