Council is bringing the fun to St Clair

Monday, 24 July 2023

Council is bringing the excitement of the Family Fun Day series to the St Clair community on Saturday, 5 August.

This family-friendly event will see a pop-up petting zoo, inflatable obstacle course, craft and sporting activities and more for a day of FREE fun at Peter Kearns Memorial Oval, St Clair.

The Family Fun Day program was developed in response to insights received from a survey on resident wellbeing undertaken by Council in November 2022. It showed a strong need for localised opportunities for people in neighbourhoods to connect outside of the City Centres. The Family Fun Days address this feedback by offering local communities the opportunity to come together to connect with their neighbours, while at the same time enjoying engaging activities and entertainment.     

Penrith Mayor Tricia Hitchen said that this event will be a great opportunity for residents in St Clair to connect and learn more about local services in an exciting, family-friendly environment.   
“After a successful Family Fun Day in Glenmore Park in June, we’re turning our attention to St Clair and inviting residents in the east of the Penrith LGA to join in on the fun,” Cr Hitchen said. 

“This Family Fun Day will provide something for everyone in the community with a fun-filled, safe place to meet, relax and get involved in creative activities.”

On Saturday, 5 August from 10am to 3pm, residents are invited to bring their family and friends along with a picnic blanket to enjoy the ‘Family Fun Day’ event featuring craft workshops, entertainment, a petting zoo, food trucks, and activities for all ages.

The event is free, and no registration is required. Council encourages residents to walk or catch public transportation if possible as parking is limited.   

In the event of wet weather, updates will be provided via Council’s social media.
