Over the weekend the Chief Medical Officer announced the closure of skate parks and public playgrounds. This is in addition to the Prime Minister's announcement on 24 March to close indoor and outdoor play centres. Play Australia also announces that whilst playgrounds may be closed, it's still ok to play outside!
We encourage all of our members and supporters to do what you can to also get this message out to parents and caregivers, to provide outside time for kids during this time of physical distancing and staying at home. Here is our Media Release for your information. Please feel free to quote from this release on your own social media networks and websites. Let's keep the conversation going!
