Ticket to Play

Ticket to Play is a Tasmanian Government initiative designed to reduce the cost of participating in club sporting activities for Tasmanian children.

The key objective of Ticket to Play is to increase the number of young Tasmanians playing sport and supporting the Tasmanian Government’s objective of Tasmania being the healthiest population by 2025.

The Ticket To Play initiative provides students whose parents/guardians/carers have a Centrelink Health Care Card or Pensioner Concession Card with a voucher of up to $100 to pay for registration/membership of an approved activity provider/sports club.

Special Olympics

Special Olympics has partnered with a number of partners to deliver some amazing school holiday programs. In July 2019 we are offering ‘The Holiday Zone’ program again. The Holiday Zone is a school holiday program for children with disability and/or siblings of children with disability. The Holiday Zone offers interactive, fun, inclusion-focused activities. Please note the July Holiday Zone includes an activity-based program in Launceston.

You’ll note that we’ve slightly restructured our programs. We’ll be running 9-3pm programs for children with disability in both weeks. The first week will be based at Southern Support School, whilst the second will be based at other community venues. Both weeks will be jam-packed with activities!

To view our fantastic program and secure your spot (places will fill fast!) please hop onto our website and complete the Holiday Zone Application Form https://livetasmania.org/holiday-zone.

The Holiday Zone programs are funded by the Tascare Partnerships Program. Li-Ve Tasmania also want to acknowledge our highly valued partners from Southern Support School, Young Leaders of Tasmania and Special Olympics plus all of the featured community groups that tutor/facilitate specialist programs.
