Activity Playgrounds

Victorian Bushfires

We've teamed up with Variety Club of Victoria and installed a couple of new playgrounds in schools who weren't so fortunate. The first is at Chum Creek Primary, where the fires skirted the perimeter,and they lost a few buildings and the playground was partially bulldozed to make a fire break. Glen Robbins and Keith from the Seekers were there for the hand over, and it was an emotional time.

We also had the opportunity to help at Middle Kinglake Primary, where the school was burned to the ground. To see the devastation in and around this area was horrific, and it only made us want to help more! Again, the help provided by Volenteers was invaluable, and the kids welcomed their new playground with great enthusiasm. (I don't even think the concrete was set yet!)
