Our Kindergym sessions provide a safe and stimulating environment where children and their parents or caregivers can creatively explore the equipment and be challenged by the wide range of physical activities.
We believe children in these sessions learn by meeting these challenges and by observing and following other children of mixed ages and abilities at play. Parents/Carers are a play-mate, a role model and a source of ideas and encouragement. It is important to participate at all stages of the session with your child.
Baby Kindergym (age 6 mths – under 2 years)
Sessions are designed to introduce both the child and the parent/carer to the Kindergym environment, procedures and play based learning. It is a gentle and unhurried session where very young children and new parents can participate and interact without competition from older and bigger children. Child/parent/carer interaction is paramount.
General Kindergym (6 months – 5 years)
Our General Kindergym sessions provide a safe and stimulating environment where children can explore the equipment and be challenged by the wide range of physical activities we offer. Children are encouraged to climb, jump, swing, hang, balance, slide and participate in sensory exploration.
Parents/ caregivers remain with their child at all times to encourage participation and to provide hands on assistance when required.
Our general sessions start with a short warm up followed by free play on all of our equipment including trampolines, foam pit, beams, bars, mats as well as a large range of Kindergym specific equipment. We end our sessions with group time activities.
Junior Pregym (aged 3 years)
The Junior Pregym sessions are for children who are ready for a little more structure out of their kindergym experience but are not quite old enough for our Pregym sessions. Children must have turned 3 years before starting our Junior Pregym class. During our Junior Pregym classes we introduce the children to our Gymnastics equipment and teach them basic gymnastics skills and positions that are age and stage appropriate. The class involves direction and following instruction while in a fun environment.
It is important that children learn these skills in a safe, controlled environment with accredited coaches to reduce the risk of injury. We understand that young children often want to try different skills that they may have seen others doing however due to their age and muscle development they may not be physically ready to attempt these skills and in doing so may increase the risk of injury.
Due to the structured nature of both our Junior Pregym sessions we only take new enrollments during the first three weeks of any term. Child/parent/carer interaction is paramount.
Once your child turns four they will then advance to Pregym class.
Pregym (age 4-5 years)
During the session our coaches teach basic gymnastics skills that help develop strength and coordination in a fun, structured environment. Children learn and develop around 15 skills each term as well as learning to listen, take instructions and work more independently. These skills give children a great “head start” for many other activities that they may go into as they get older including dance, soccer, football and of course gymnastics!
