Basketball Basketball keeps the focus on fun, with skills woven into games rather than drilled on their own. Kids move through dribbling, shooting and passing challenges before diving into a mix of fast-paced games that keep everyone moving and involved. Groups are split by age or ability, so every kid gets a game that suits them.
Super Mario Super Mario brings the classic game to life across the gym, with lava mats, pipes, castles and rolling poison balls turning the floor into a level to beat. Kids take turns playing Mario, dodging their way through obstacles and opponents to reach the end with a life to spare, while their teammates cheer them on from the sidelines. Every run is timed, so the pressure builds as the fastest times go up.
Kickball Kickball takes the fun of baseball and swaps the bat for a big kick, with kids racing around the diamond while the fielding team works together to get them out. It's easy to pick up, so kids of every ability can jump straight in and get involved. Teams swap over once everyone's had a turn, keeping the game moving and the scores building.
Run the Gauntlet Run the Gauntlet pits runners against throwers, with kids sprinting for cover behind mats and barriers while trying to avoid getting hit. Every safe crossing earns a token, and getting hit doesn't mean missing out, since tokens can be passed on to a teammate to keep the game moving. A few different twists roll through the session, from a Doctor who can revive teammates to a Catcher who brings everyone back in with one clean grab.
Drop off from 8:30am, with the program starting at 9am. The day is split into four activity blocks, with morning tea, lunch and afternoon tea breaks built in to keep energy up (please pack food for all three, as none is provided). Pick up by 3:30pm.
