As school holidays kick-off, families in Melton will have plenty of entertainment to choose from with council rolling out a jam-packed program.

Activities for all age groups are on offer this holiday season at centres across Melton.

Some of the highlights include a stop motion studio event in Caroline Springs where participants aged nine to 12 will be able to use characters, props and a bit of movie magic to bring their story to life, one frame at a time.

There’s also a circus skills workshop for the more acrobatically inclined.

As part of the sessions, children will have the opportunity to learn a range of circus tricks including hula hoops, spinning plates, flower sticks, juggling and parachute activities.

Designed as an introduction to the exciting world of circus, this workshop is tailor-made for children of all abilities, offering a wide range of engaging activities.

Additionally, there’s some activities planned for older children through the Young Communities initiative.

There’s a range of free and low cost fun including a cooking class, where kids can bring their cooking skills and organisers will provide the ingredients.

A sketch class is also available for Caroline Springs kids interested in learning the fundamentals of digital art.
