Break the Ice - Brimbank School Holiday Program
2026-01-13 10:00 - 12:00 (Australia/Melbourne) | Sunshine Library, 301 Hampshire Rd, Sunshine, VIC, 3020, Australia
The Brimbank School Holiday program is a 4-session program for young people aged 10-14 who live or attend school in Brimbank.
What it’s about: This program will contain a mixture of creative and active activities to provide enjoyment and improved mental wellbeing for young people in the community.
This event includes Icebreaker activities so that young people can get to know each other and learn stuff about one another.
Passive activities will be conducted such as Charades, Family Shield, 2 truths 1 lie etc.
How it works: Register your tween/teen into one or two of the four sessions only. We would like many young people to get the opportunity to participate in a no cost, fully supervised, fun, and friendly activity during the school holidays. So please only book in for a maximum of two sessions per young person. Each session will consist of different staff facilitated games and activities. There will be a maximum of 25 spots available per session. Four staff members will be present during each session. All staff have WWCC’s and either have a Youth Work Degree qualification or are currently working towards one.
Who is this for: Young people 10-14 who live or attend school in the Brimbank Municipality.
