Consultation has concluded
The Department of Education (NSW Government) use our sporting and swimming pool facilities across QPRC for a range of sporting and school based recreational programs. Fees should be charged to contribute to maintenance costs from the regular use of Mick Sherd Oval and David Madew Ovals.
The proposed annual fee for each oval for non-exclusive use by schools is $20,000 per annum (excluding GST). The Department of Education (DoE) has advised that they intend to commence paying the fee for shared use of both ovals from the beginning of Term 1 2023.
The proposed fee provides shared use of these ovals to meet the DoE’s operational requirements for access during standard school hours for sport, physical education, and other curricular activities.
The high schools will book access to the ovals through our online booking system. This is consistent with arrangements for Council-managed ovals for other schools across the Local Government Area.
