Online webinar
Audio description available
School grounds are untapped assets that can provide much needed recreational space where it is needed most.
As Victoria grows and more people live closer together, shared school grounds can benefit many more people in Melbourne and, in the longer term, other major cities.
Many government school grounds are already open to the community outside school hours. But our research finds shared school grounds are unevenly distributed across Melbourne.
This webinar explores the findings and recommendations in our latest research report, Getting more from school grounds: sharing places for play and exercise. Our recommendations to the Victorian Government focus on supporting more schools to share outdoor areas with local communities.

- Dr Jonathan Spear, CEO Infrastructure Victoria
