Keeping minds active during the winter break

If you are staying in Sydney these school holidays be sure to take advantage of the artistic, cultural and scientific experiences the city has to offer. The museums, art galleries, libraries and local councils offer a wide variety of free and paid activities (some more affordable than others) and unique study spaces.
