Next milestone for Active Thames project
Resource consent has been granted for the Thames High School indoor sports facility, clearing the way for work to
proceed on the next phase of the project.
The project group is now working on a procurement strategy, including legal agreement with the Ministry Of Education. An
update report will be presented at the Thames Community Board meeting on Monday 13 April.
The community has pledged $310,000 so far toward the Active Thames 2018 programme for the Skate Park, Thames Indoor
Sports Facility and the Rhodes Park upgrade.
An application to the NZ Lotteries Community Facilities Fund was submitted last month and we’re awaiting the decision
announcement sometime in June.
Preliminary designs have been completed in full and we thank Glen Brebner from BBGB Team Architects for the incredible
level of detail provided in these preliminary plans. Feel free todownload the preliminary design here or take a look at our project page.
