The day will also feature problem-solving challenges and activities focused on emotion regulation, helping children learn to navigate obstacles and communicate their feelings in a supportive atmosphere. This interactive environment encourages peer connections and makes skill development an enjoyable experience through imaginative play.

The day will conclude with a short group discussion to reflect on the experiences and reinforce the social skills that were utilised.

Tuesday, 20th January: Balance with Confidence at YMCA Gymnastics, Essendon

Gymnastic Day is all about flipping, jumping, and having fun while building stronger bodies and minds! As kids tumble and twirl through exciting obstacle courses, they'll not only have tons of fun but also work on important skills. They'll enhance their coordination, boost their confidence, and learn to set and achieve goals. Plus, participating in gymnastics can help improve focus and teach persistence as they practice new moves. It's a fantastic way to combine play with physical and mental growth, making every leap and landing a step towards becoming their best selves!

Wednesday, 21st January: Crafty Gardeners, Maidstone

Join us for an enriching day of learning and growing, not just our brains! Children will have the opportunity to learn about the art and science of developing and nurturing plants and crops. This experience will foster development in areas such as social skills, connection with others, problem-solving, understanding cause-and-effect relationships, and communication in a real-world setting.

 

Let's plant the seeds of learning in a natural environment and reap the benefits together. This day promises not only a fun and educational experience but also a step forward in building valuable life skills in a memorable setting.

Thursday, 22nd January: Movie & Bowling/Laser Tag, Highpoint

The upcoming Strike Bowling/Laser Tag and Movie Day is designed to help children practice social interaction in a real-world setting. The day will include a group movie session featuring a film (The Grand Prix of Europe) that explores themes of friendship, teamwork, or managing emotions. The social group will also include active play at Strike, where children can participate in activities such as laser tag and bowling. These experiences aim to promote communication, turn-taking, and peer interaction in a supportive environment. The day will conclude with a short group discussion to reflect on the experiences and reinforce the social skills that were utilised.

Friday, 16th January: Super Science Squad, Flemington

Get ready to mix, bubble, and blast your way through a day of hands-on discovery with the Super Science Squad! Children will become real scientists for the day by experimenting, creating, and exploring the magic of how things work.

 

This exciting day will focus on:

  • Exploring Chemistry & Physics: The Squad will observe real chemical reactions, test forces such as gravity and motion, and witness science come to life through hands-on experiments.

  • Teamwork & Cooperation: The Squad will work together to create, test, and problem-solve during fun group science challenges.

  • Emotional Regulation: Activities will support children in recognising their emotions, staying calm, and practising strategies for managing big feelings.

  • Communication & Social Skills: We will practise sharing materials, taking turns, and talking through their ideas as they work on experiments together.

  • Curiosity & Discovery: The Squad will make fizzing volcanoes, explore floating and sinking, and create their very own slime to take home.

 

Our therapists will guide and support your child throughout the day in a safe, structured, and inclusive environment. Each participant will be able to take home their science creations and a spark of curiosity that will continue to bubble long after the day ends.

 

Join the Super Science Squad for a day of bubbling experiments, brilliant teamwork, and unforgettable discoveries!
