The place we’ll be taking OUR kids this school holiday in Brisbane

Yay! The fabulous Kids Collective school holiday program returns to Roma Street Parkland, Brisbane this winter school holiday. It’s at the top of our tribe’s activity list!

From yoga to soccer, nature play to interactive art, there is a great program of activities to keep little ones entertained. If you were wondering how to keep the kids entertained during the June-July school holidays, look no further!

The Kids Collective school holiday program runs Wednesday to Friday, both weeks of the winter school holiday. The more popular sessions often book out, so jump online and grab the spots you want as soon as bookings open, so you don’t miss out.

4 reasons we love the Kids Collective school holiday program

Kids Collective has to be one of our favourite activities for kids in Brisbane. Here’s why:

  • Its free! Yes. Totally free.
  • It has a relaxed, drop-in vibe. Thanks to easing COVID-19 restrictions, the sessions are back to being drop-in rather than allotted times slots. Hooray! Bookings are still required, but once you’ve scored your spot you can come at anytime during that morning. We love this, as we all know how hard it is to be on time when the kids are involved.
  • The inclusive range of activities. We find the activities are perfect for those with either several kids to entertain, or kids that just need to do something different. It’s an opportunity for kids to try soccer, craft, circus tricks and gardening. There’s no pressure, no expectation to do ‘well’, just lots of fun things to share and do.
  • The location. Roma Street Parkland is gorgeous and it’s the ideal destination for kids that need to get out of the house. Once there, take advantage of playground, throw down a rug for a picnic, or just enjoy being outdoors in the fresh air.

Fast facts
