School Holiday program on again

Spring has sprung in time for the holidays

The school holidays are almost back again and Tamworth Regional Council has pulled together a sensational array of activities to keep the boredom at bay. The calendar is packed full of events that promise to keep the kids entertained from September 26 through to October 7.

There is something on offer for all ages, interests and abilities. From movie nights, scratch art, Lego challenges and cooking, to a pool comp and even a disco to keep the holidays groovy.

Tamworth Regional Council, Coordinator Out of School Hours Care and Youth Centre, Haley Fenn, said: “The selection of events we offer are fantastic not just to keep the kids busy, but they allow them to explore new activities, experiences and meet people in the process.”

Activities will be on operating at The Youthie, Tamworth libraries, Tamworth Gallery, Manilla Library, Barraba Library and Kootingal Library, not to mention a collection of online workshops accessible at any time.

One highlight of the spring program this year is the cartooning workshops with award-winning local artist Danny Stanley. Young artists will have the opportunity to embrace their abstract thinking and develop their own special characters. Being guided through the processes of technical drawing and storytelling, participants are invited to embrace their imagination and creativity.
