July School Holiday Program

Six themed days across two weeks. Play-based. Educator-designed. For children aged 3.5-8 years.

Week 1: Mon 6, Wed 8, Fri 10
Week 2: Mon 13, Wed 15, Fri 17
Karrinyup Children's Centre

More than a holiday activity. A proper learning experience.

Every session is carefully designed around a theme, with literacy and numeracy skills woven in, hands-on creating and the kind of unhurried pace that children rarely get during the school year.

Small groups. Qualified educators. A real takeaway every day.

OPTIONAL ADD-ON

Reading Lift

A daily 1:1 fluency boost for young readers, running alongside the holiday program.

Each day your child will receive 20 minutes of guided reading support designed to strengthen:
faster, smoother reading
improved word recognition
stronger understanding of texts
greater confidence when reading aloud

Without daily practice, reading progress often stalls over the holidays. Reading fluency develops through daily repetition. For this reason, the Holiday Reading Lift is structured as a 5 OR 10 day Program and families are encouraged to commit to the full schedule. Missing more than two sessions may limit the effectiveness of the program.

  • Evidence-based and structured
    Grounded in an explicit phonics sequence, adjusted every session based on the previous day.

  • For children enrolled in holiday program days (Mon, Wed, Fri), sessions run during a quieter time at the centre. Home visits on Tuesday and Thursday. 

  • For children not enrolled in the holiday program, home visits can be planned for each day.

  • This is a per week commitment and is available as a standalone booking (no program enrolment required).
