At the Y, we exist to inspire young people in areas that interest them, so that they arrive back home with the sort of passion every parent wants to see. We know that if we can create the sort of programs that interest young people, they will be empowered.

Before and After School Programs are great solutions for busy families and provide fun, friendly and relaxed environments for children to grow and learn.

The Y caters to the needs of all children and offers a range of enjoyable activities including:

• Sports, ball games and team games;
• Arts and crafts;
• Cooking;
• Creative and expressive arts such as drama, singing and dancing;
• Board games and puzzles;
• Homework time;
• Gardening and recycling.

We also provide healthy snacks, with breakfast being served in the morning, and afternoon tea after school.
