Book your kids into our January School Holiday 2-day workshop for an unforgettable GLOW experience filled with fun and creativity!
Castle Hill | Mosman| Bondi | Gladesville |
Age group: school aged 5 – 12 years
Get them off their devices and encourage them do something fun, active and most importantly an activity to boost their confidence.
Our Performing Arts Programs run over two days, which is a great way to break up the school holidays.
The program focuses on self-esteem and confidence building. We encourage the children to be part of the creative process, allowing them to feel valued and proud of their achievements. The philosophy behind this is that children learn faster and enjoy their classes more when they feel their opinion is valued.
There are six x 45-minute classes per day. At the end of the workshop the children will perform in a family concert to show off all their new talents. Parents love watching their children shine and it is extremely beneficial for their self-esteem. To top it off all the children will also be awarded with a Performance Certificate.
WINNER – in March 2024 we won the prestigious award for ‘Best School Holiday Provider’ at the ‘What’s on 4 Kids Awards’.

FAQ's
What if I want to cancel my booking?
As we have a limit of the number of children we can accept, once booked in there will be no refund for change of mind or illness within 14 days of the program. If there is less then 14 days notice we are more than happy to credit your booking to another workshop at another time. There is no expiry on your credit.
How many children per class?
The children will be split into 2 groups. Each class will contain approximately 10-15 children per teacher. The children are grouped according to their age and with friends. Sometimes classes can grow to 20 children; in this incidence a second teacher will be present. There is also an additional supervisor who oversees the whole workshop and helps out were necessary.

Yes of course, as long as their friends are in the same age group. We want your child to have the best time possible therefore we need to group your child based on their maturity.
What if my child does not know anyone?
Do not worry; this is a perfect opportunity for your child to make new friends. The program consists of numerous team building activities, especially on the first morning which encourage the children to mix with others.
Does my child have to attend the whole program?
We strongly encourage your child to attend the whole program. Each day the children are put into groups for various activities and some activities carry on over to the following day. The children also build friendships and may be put out if someone doesn’t attend the whole program. Part attendance will need to be confirmed at the discretion of the office.
