The Alpine Shire has playgroups, toy libraries and playgrounds for younger children.
Active Travel to School
We’re proud to be able to help our schools and communities promote healthy activity with their students, and encourage life-long habits.
We worked with our school community to create this video showcasing active travel initiatives of some Alpine Shire primary schools.
