27th June 2021

The Sanctuary Point Garden Centre is classed as an essential service, therefore will remain open during lockdowns for essential shopping supplies.

As of 4pm on the 26th June 2021, the NSW Government made the wearing of masks in a non-residential inside space (i.e. shops) mandatory across NSW and this includes the Shoalhaven.  As a result this means that whilst visiting the Sanctuary Point Garden Centre you are required to wear a face mask if you enter our covered areas and our nursery shop.  Sanctuary Point Garden Centre staff members will also be wearing the required protective face coverings.

All other Covid-19 safety measures remain in place such as using the NSW COVID SAFE APP to check in before entering the Sanctuary Point Garden Centre, utilising the sanitiser provided, maintaining a 1.5m distance between yourselves and others (including staff members) and just staying at home if you have flu like symptoms or feel unwell.

Thanks for your co-operation
