School holidays

It's great to see so many families down at the Complex over the school holidays. If you are looking for something to do with the kids you are always welcome to come along to: have a hit of tennis, shoot some hoops, take a walk through the bush, throw a frisbee around on the rugby fields, practice your golf swing, take a dip in the pool, play on the playground and finish off with a meal in the BBQ area – lots to do and all of it free!
