Published on 17 January 2020
Uralla Shire Council is pleased to announce it will be offering free entry to the Uralla Pool to all residents from the Uralla Shire from Monday, 20th January to Monday, 27th January 2020, the week leading up to and including the Australia Day Public Holiday.
A sausage sizzle, transport for Bundarra residents, activities and games will also be provided during the week as part of the free days at the Uralla Pool initiative.
“We are incredibly pleased to offer these free entry days and pool activities to the Uralla community,” said Council’s Acting General Manager, Mr David Aber. “This is a great initiative and I would like to extend a huge thanks to the staff who have worked so hard to make this possible.”
Free entry to the pool and all activities during the week have been made possible by a $10,000 Drought Stimulus – Regional School Holiday Activities grant from the NSW Government.
On Thursday, 23rd January 2020 Council will provide a free sausage sizzle for all pool visitors. Council will also provide free transportation from Bundarra to Uralla on this day. The bus will depart at 11:00am from the Bundarra General Store and make the return trip from Uralla at 4:00pm that afternoon.
Council will be offering a range of activities and games during the week including Family Water Safety Storytime for young children, their parents and guardians. There will also be non-water based games including the favourite “Giant Jenga”, darts, Snakes and Ladders, Dominoes, and more.
“We hope the Uralla Shire community will take advantage of this opportunity and make a visit to the Uralla Pool,” Mr Aber said. “If you haven’t already, this is a great chance to see the new upgrades to the pool completed under the Stronger Country Communities Fund last November.”
A complete schedule of the activities and programs being offered are available on Council’s website at www.uralla.nsw.gov.au.
Grant funds are also being used to ensure additional staff are on hand to ensure the safety of all visitors as well as a youth-based survey conducted throughout the week for future event planning and Youth Week activities.
