Kids at Play Project

Mr MARK COURE (Oatley) (20:08):

:51 This is my 700th speech in the Chamber. I inform the House of the recent opening of the Kids at Play project, now in action at St George Hospital. Children receiving care at the hospital can now enjoy a new outdoor play space with the launch of the Kids at Play project. Recently I had the privilege of officially opening the new Fishtail outdoor play area with hospital staff and members of the Rotary Club of Hurstville. Established by the Rotary Club of Hurstville, the Kids at Play project aims to create improved recreational and clinical spaces in the children's ward of St George Hospital. The project has been Rotary's main charity initiative for many years and it has been supported by sales from the Rotary Club book shop at Mulga Road. The first stage of the project included two refurbished play areas and a parent's retreat room. The second and third stage of the project will involve the establishment of the Fairy Sparkle Garden and a combined clinic space. I thank Rotary Club of Hurstville for its continued efforts towards the wonderful project.
