KATHRYN RUSSO et al., Appellants, v. VALLEY CENTRAL SCHOOL DISTRICT, Respondent.

Ordered that the order is affirmed, with costs.

The plaintiff Kathryn Russo allegedly was injured during an after-school program when, as she was demonstrating how to use a swing, a chain detached from the seat, causing her to fall to the ground. In opposition to the defendant's prima facie demonstration of its entitlement to judgment as a matter of law, the plaintiffs failed to raise a triable issue of fact as to whether the defendant created or had actual or constructive notice of the alleged dangerous and defective condition of the swing, or whether that negligence by the defendant was a proximate cause of the injuries alleged ( see Goetz v Town of Smithtown, 303 AD2d 367; Sinto v City of Long Beach, 290 AD2d 550). Thus, the defendant's motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint was properly granted.
