After School & Holiday Programmes

The Sport Canterbury Holiday Programmes are a great way to keep the children active in the holidays. We run these programmes every January, April, July and September school holidays at a number of venues around Canterbury.

The aim is to provide opportunities for children to have fun and learn the skills of a variety of Sports in a safe and friendly environment. By experiencing these children are able to identify different sports they enjoy playing, and have the opportunity to continue participating in these sports via other community programmes.

As well as Sport Activities in the morning, those children that stay on for the full day programmes will participate in some more passive activities that may include off site visits to such places as Orana Park, Antarctic Centre, Mini Golf.

During the programme a variety of Sports are played including:
Run Jump Throw, Auskick, Badminton, Cricket, Croquet, Hockey, Indoor Bowls, Rugby League, Netball, Basketball, Orienteering, Rugby Union, Soccer, Softball, Ten Pin Bowling, Unihoc, Petanque, Tennis, Touch, Volleyball, Earthball and Parachute.

Morning Only Programmes - 9am - 12.30 pm (Sport)
Full Day Programme - 9am - 5.00 pm

Please note that Sport Canterbury offices are now located at Unit B, 1 Brynley Street, Hornby. Eftpos is available.
