A GLOBAL games program that has been run successfully in Toowoomba and Brisbane is coming to Stanthorpe these school holidays.
“Kids Games” is a values-based, games-focused kids’ holiday program that encourages all children to participate, co-ordinator Susan Johnstone said.
Ms Johnstone and three other Granite Belt primary school chaplains have been busy organising the games, craft, music, drama and Bible stories for the event, which starts on Tuesday 1 July.
“We know that in winter it can be tempting to stay indoors and watch TV or play computer games all day,” she said.
“Kids Games gets kids playing together and being active as well as forming great friendships.”
The three-day event will be held at Stanthorpe State School at a cost of $25 per child. Discounts are available for families with more than one child.
Interested parents or carers can register their children at kidsgamesqld.com.au.
Children are asked to bring their own lunch with morning and afternoon tea provided.
