The City has a range of activities to entertain and excite young ones these coming December school holidays, from cooking and arts to sports and library-driven initiatives. 

George Burnett Leisure Centre (GBLC) is hosting a number of sporting clinics, with basketball, netball, soccer and multisports on offer. The programs aim to encourage physical activity, participation and healthy lifestyles for kids. They’re offered for various age groups, and bookings are required.

GBLC is also hosting a cooking and arts program, Halloween themed to tie in with the October timeslot. Spaces are limited to 14 children for these sessions, so ensure you book quickly.

South Perth Libraries have a number of programs to inspire and delight young minds this festive season. Sing-a-long to Christmas carols, and watch as the City turns on the beautiful Christmas tree lights at the Old Mill to kick off the festive season. Join us for a Intergenerational Storytime Christmas Edition where the young and young at heart experience the magic of reading at any age or get crafty and learn to make your own Christmas decorations. For the older kids, there will be an End of Year Disco filled with games, and fun activities for all ages.

The library sessions are all free, however bookings are required.
