HOLIDAY FUN:

School-aged youth across Hindmarsh Shire have the opportunity to collect a free activity pack to keep them busy during the upcoming school holidays. Council youth and community development officer Petra Croot has been busy creating holiday packs suited to primary school-aged students as well as teenagers. Packs include STEM activities, hands-on activities, ‘things that get you out and about’ and a few surprises. Packs can be collected from Jeparit Library and Customer Service Centre today between 9am and noon, Nhill Library and Rainbow Library and Customer Service Centre on Friday between 2pm and 5pm, and Dimboola Library and Customer Service Centre between 9am and noon, or 2pm and 5pm on Friday. Packs are limited and people are encouraged to call Hindmarsh Shire Council on 5391 4444 to book a pack to avoid disappointment. Additional virtual activities will also be announced on Hindmarsh Shire Libraries and Hindmarsh Shire Youth Council Facebook pages throughout the school holiday break.
