GO PLAY – hundreds of school holiday activities online

The boredom, the tantrums, the tears – and that’s just you! Don’t get
caught out with nothing to do these school holidays.

Go Play is an online school holiday calendar with hundreds of free and
affordable activities all over Sydney.

You’ll discover the range of arts, culture, sport and recreational
activities offered by the NSW Government. This Autumn, kids can try
kayaking at the Sydney International Regatta Centre, cartooning at the
State Library or space engineering at Sydney Observatory.

You can search by age, location, type of activity or cost. A transport
planner and other family-friendly information is offered, including
availability of baby change tables, cafes, and disabled and pram access.
Select an activity and the Go Play map will show you what’s on nearby.

A free Go Play iPhone app is on its way. Check the app store in April
for everything you need to plan a great school holiday on the run.
