Charles Sturt University (CSU) in Bathurst will host the 'Small Schools Gala Sports Day' today, Friday 7 November. Head of Campus, Mr Col Sharp, will welcome 166 students from public schools at O'Connell, Perthville, Meadow Flat, Wattle Flat, Sofala, Black Springs, Rockley, and Burraga. "It is great to have the community coming onto campus and using our fantastic facilities," Mr Sharp said. "The University facilities - a lecture theatre for assembly, three sporting fields, netball and tennis courts - are being provided at no cost. The Community-University Partnerships' (CUP) 'Healthy, Active, Sporting Regions program' is funding a barbeque lunch and all children will go home with a CSU water bottle." Mr Sharp will welcome the students and their teachers to the campus at their assembly in lecture room 223, building 1292, at 9.30am Friday 7 November.
