Get ready for an action-packed Spring school holiday season filled with excitement, creativity, and endless fun!
Noosa Council has curated a vibrant program of activities and workshops to keep children of all ages entertained and engaged.
From arts and crafts to swim intensives, puppet-making, and youth theatre, there’s something for everyone.
At the Noosa Aquatic Centre, children can dive into the Intensive Learn to Swim Programs running across two weeks. These five-day sessions are tailored to all skill levels and designed to fast-track swimming progress in a fun and supportive environment. A note to also remember- Learn to Race classes will be running over these holidays. Parents can enjoy lap swimming, the air-conditioned gym, wellness studio, and crèche facilities, while the Poolside Café offers fresh meals and great coffee.
Noosa Leisure Centre is buzzing with energy. The Kids’ Playroom is perfect for children under five, featuring mini tramps, climbing walls, and balance beams. Outside, the new activity area includes basketball hoops, a handball court, and a pickleball hit-out wall. Casual hoops are also available—just call ahead to check court availability.
Libraries in Noosaville and Cooroy are hosting a variety of engaging activities. Children can help build a giant recycled city in Cardboard Cities, attend the Curious Kai Asks Why? book launch with Dr. Sarah Pye, and enjoy Spring Safe Storytime teaching water safety for under-fives. The Junior Book Café invites kids aged 8–12 to share their favourite reads, while Kookaburra Kulture offers nature-based outdoor adventures. LEGO Build, Create, and Imagine sessions provide freestyle and structured building fun for ages 5 and up.
At Noosa Regional Gallery, creativity takes centre stage with workshops led by local artists. Children aged 6–12 can explore Drawn to Nature and Botanical You with Zoe Awen, craft sock puppets and cardboard characters with Shaun Bennett, and dive into mixed media with Masterpieces in the Making and Nature Layers. Cartoon Dave brings Rockin’ Robots and Fierce and Ferocious Creatures to life through drawing and storytelling.
Tech-savvy kids and teens aged 7–17 can head to the Peregian Digital Hub for 18 exciting workshops. Led by talented Hub Cadets, sessions include battlebot building, 3D printing, app and game development in Rust and Python, digital art with Procreate, Minecraft Redstone engineering, LEGO robotics, and more.
Don’t miss the youth production of Mamma Mia! by Little Seed Theatre Company, running from Thursday 2 October to Saturday 4 October. This sunny and funny tale unfolds on a Greek island paradise, told through ABBA’s greatest hits.
