The Community Fitness Track and Equipment will include a multi-purpose walking/running track and 8-10 fitness stations that are open and free to the public. The Fitness Track and Equipment will be located at the Tongala Primary School to be used by the students for morning “huff and puff”, PE sessions and incidental exercise. Out of school hours, the Fitness Track and Equipment will be available for use by the entire Tongala community. Research shows that the cluster design of the fitness equipment increases participation by making exercise fun and social. So come on Tongala, let’s get active together!

We all know the importance of exercising to stay fit and healthy, yet this can be difficult when there's no gym in the town of Tongala! The Community Fitness Track and Equipment will give the Tongala community an opportunity to improve their strength, fitness and endurance without having to travel out of town. The equipment will be free to use and will benefit not only the students of Tongala Primary School but the entire town. What a great way for sporting groups, families and individuals in Tongala to stay fit without having to leave our awesome town!

We have been in discussion with other groups to have a fitness track in the town and where it could go. This is a fantastic initiative from the school for the community at large and our children in general. I am all for it.
