Grants for oval and cricket nets

Woy Woy Public School has successfully applied for a $30,000 grant to upgrade and replace its cricket net and oval.

The grant was given under the State Government's Upgrade to School Sport Facilities project supporting sporting capital works in government schools across the state.

School principal Ms Ona Buckley said: "This is a wonderful gain and exciting news for our school.

"Our storage containers sitting on the cricket net site will be moved into a new location at the end of our BER building project, when the old demountable classrooms that are no longer needed are taken away.

"Negotiations, plans and quotes will need to be secured for the cricket net plus upgrade."

Ms Buckley said the school had until June next year to complete the upgrade project.
