The Griffith Sports Active Kids School Holiday program is designed to show your kids all the different ways they can stay active while learning new skills and meeting like-minded friends along the way.

The program is split into a Junior (5-8 years old) and Senior (9-13 years old) program, which incorporates 18 sports. The Junior Program is focused on sport-based fundamental movements and the Senior Program is focused on sport-specific skills in a game setting.

The next program will be kicking off in the April school holidays; registrations are flexible allowing you to either register for the full week or just a couple of days.

Testimonials

Great idea to get our kids active over the school holidays. Removing all screens and temptations for screens is brilliant and wish more organisations offered a similar program. Bravo!” โ€“ Shari Tiley

A great program for active kids. My son had an awesome time. He even declared on day three that โ€œhe was in heavenโ€!! He has so much energy and is always bouncing off the walls at home so it was great to send him somewhere he could have fun and use up all that energy at the same time! Thank you!” – Kristy. H.

My daughter looks forward to the program every school holidays. She loves making new friends, the staff are fabulous, and she always enjoys the range of activities that are offered.” Danielle H.

My boys are loving their junior school holiday program at Griffith University. They are learning some great new skills and enjoying different sports every day. Thank you to the team at Griffith for putting on such a fun school holiday program!” – Ross Vasta MP.

My son has attended the program a couple of weeks each year for 2+ years now and he doesn’t even want to listen to suggestions for other holiday programs/activities. He loves the variety of sports, always seems to come home with a new friend and he sleeps super well each night. Happy kid = happy holidays.”ย Michelle T.

Active kids is a great program providing a safe and fun environment promoting movement and exercise – and gets the kids off the screens during the holidays!” Kylli B.

โ€œMy son really enjoyed the program and chose to go to these over other experiences we had on offer at school through OSHC. He loved learning the new sports and finding new friends. I appreciated the structure of the day – long hours to allow for work needs.โ€ Lindy H.
