10 Vacation Care Activity Ideas That Kids Actually Love in 2026 & 2027

Fresh, engaging and practical school holiday activity ideas for OSHC coordinators, vacation care providers and schools across Australia.

 

Planning an exciting vacation care program isn't always easy. With school holidays approaching, Outside School Hours Care (OSHC) coordinators and holiday program managers face the challenge of creating activities that are engaging, inclusive, affordable and suitable for children of different ages and abilities.

And with many children attending vacation care for multiple days, variety is essential.

Whether you're organising a summer holiday program in Melbourne, planning January activities in Sydney or preparing your OSHC calendar for the year ahead, we've put together 10 vacation care activity ideas for 2027 that can help make your next school holiday program a success.

From hands-on STEM challenges to exciting sports incursions, these activities offer opportunities for children to learn new skills, make friends and have fun.

 

1. Multi-Sport Incursions and Sports Challenges

Best for: Active play, teamwork and trying something new.

Sports incursions remain a fantastic option for vacation care programs because they combine physical activity, skill development and social interaction.

Rather than relying on traditional sports such as basketball and soccer, consider introducing children to activities they may not have experienced before.

Popular options include:

  • Tennis Hot Shots: Modified tennis games, mini rallies and coordination challenges.
  • Shuttle Smash Badminton: Fast-paced racquet games that can be delivered indoors.
  • MyGolf: Putting challenges, target games and modified golf activities.
  • Cricket: Batting, bowling and fielding games inspired by Australia's summer sporting culture.
  • Pickleball: A fun and accessible racquet sport that introduces children to a new activity.

Specialist providers such as Fit For Kids Co. can deliver structured sports incursions directly at your vacation care venue, bringing coaches and equipment to your service.

Programming tip: Create a Mini Olympics or Sports Carnival theme, allowing children to rotate through different challenges and earn points for teamwork, effort and participation.

 

2. STEM Challenges and Science Discovery Days

Best for: Problem-solving, creativity and collaborative learning.

STEM activities are a great way to introduce children to science, technology, engineering and mathematics through hands-on experiences.

You don't necessarily need expensive equipment to create an engaging STEM day.

Try activities such as building bridges from recycled materials, creating balloon-powered cars, designing paper aeroplanes or testing different structures.

For a larger holiday program, consider inviting a specialist science incursion provider to deliver interactive experiments and demonstrations.

Programming tip: Run a team engineering challenge where groups design, build and test their creations. Focus on creativity and problem-solving rather than simply rewarding the winning design.

 

3. Amazing Race and Outdoor Adventure Challenges

Best for: Teamwork, movement and problem-solving.

Turn your school grounds or vacation care facility into an adventure course with an Amazing Race-style activity day.

Children can work in teams to complete challenges at different stations, including:

  • Obstacle courses and movement activities
  • Treasure hunts and clue-solving games
  • Team puzzles and memory challenges
  • Mini sporting challenges
  • Nature-based discovery tasks

An Amazing Race theme can be adapted for different ages, making it a flexible choice for mixed-age vacation care groups.

Programming tip: Include a mixture of physical, creative and problem-solving tasks so every child has an opportunity to contribute.

 

4. Creative Arts and DIY Workshops

Best for: Self-expression, imagination and quieter activity periods.

Not every vacation care activity needs to involve running, jumping or competing.

Creative workshops provide children with an opportunity to explore their imagination, develop fine motor skills and create something they can take home.

Ideas include tie-dye projects, painting, clay modelling, recycled art, jewellery making and designing personalised tote bags.

For summer holiday programs, consider themes such as beach art, colourful summer murals or designing a dream holiday destination.

Programming tip: Offer several creative stations rather than one compulsory activity. This allows children to choose projects that match their interests.

 

 

5. Water Games and Summer Splash Activities

Best for: Summer holiday fun and outdoor group activities.

During the warmer December and January holidays, water-based activities can be a popular addition to vacation care programs.

Depending on your venue, facilities, weather and supervision arrangements, consider sponge relay races, water transfer challenges, sprinkler activities or team-based water games.

These activities can provide an enjoyable summer experience without requiring a trip to a swimming pool.

Programming tip: Always assess weather conditions, water safety, supervision requirements and sun protection. Schedule outdoor activities during suitable conditions and have an indoor alternative ready for extreme heat.

 

 

6. Cooking and Junior Chef Workshops

Best for: Practical life skills, creativity and teamwork.

Cooking activities give children an opportunity to develop confidence in the kitchen while learning about ingredients, food preparation and healthy eating.

Simple vacation care cooking ideas include:

  • Build-your-own mini pizzas
  • Colourful fruit skewers
  • No-bake energy balls
  • Decorate-your-own biscuits
  • Fresh summer wraps and sandwiches

Children can work in small groups, practise following instructions and enjoy the satisfaction of creating something themselves.

Programming tip: Offer plant-based and allergy-aware options where appropriate, and confirm food allergies, dietary requirements and safe food-handling procedures before the activity.

 

 

7. Indoor Racquet Sports and Games

Best for: Hot weather, rainy days and indoor vacation care programs.

Having a reliable indoor activity plan is especially important during the Australian summer.

Racquet sports are an excellent option because many can be adapted for school halls, gymnasiums and suitable indoor spaces.

Badminton, table tennis and modified racquet challenges can help children develop hand-eye coordination, reaction time and movement skills.

For example, a Shuttle Smash Badminton incursion can introduce children to rallies, racquet control and fun team challenges using modified equipment.

Programming tip: Create an indoor racquet sports festival with skill stations, target games and modified matches, rather than focusing solely on competition.

 

 

8. Nature Explorers and Sustainability Activities

Best for: Environmental awareness, curiosity and hands-on learning.

Nature-themed activities can encourage children to explore their surroundings and develop an appreciation for the environment.

Depending on your available outdoor space, activities might include nature scavenger hunts, planting seeds, creating insect-friendly habitats or building art projects from recycled materials.

You could also introduce a sustainability challenge where children work together to design an environmentally friendly school or playground.

Programming tip: Combine nature exploration with a creative project, such as building a miniature garden or designing a recycled-material sculpture.

 

 

9. Talent Shows, Drama and Performance Days

Best for: Confidence, creativity and social connection.

A talent show or performance day gives children an opportunity to share their interests and develop confidence in a supportive environment.

Activities could include drama games, group dance routines, comedy sketches, magic tricks, storytelling or a mini talent showcase.

The emphasis should be on participation, encouragement and having fun rather than judging performance ability.

Programming tip: Offer behind-the-scenes roles such as stage design, music selection or presenting, so children who don't want to perform can still participate.

 

 

10. Mini Olympics and Team Sports Carnivals

Best for: Whole-group participation, teamwork and active holiday fun.

A Mini Olympics is a great way to bring together multiple activities into one exciting vacation care event.

Rather than focusing on traditional athletics, introduce modified sports and team challenges suitable for children of different ages and abilities.

Your carnival might include tennis target challenges, mini golf putting, cricket throwing games, badminton rallies and obstacle courses.

Children can rotate through stations in small groups, collecting points or completing challenges along the way.

Programming tip: Award recognition for teamwork, persistence, encouragement and fair play, not just sporting performance.

 

What Makes a Great Vacation Care Incursion?

For OSHC coordinators and holiday program managers, booking an external incursion provider can help introduce specialist activities without requiring an off-site excursion.

When comparing providers, consider:

  • Age suitability: Can the activities be adapted for younger and older primary school children?
  • Equipment: Does the provider bring the required equipment?
  • Space requirements: Can the activity be delivered at your existing venue?
  • Session flexibility: Can the program accommodate your group size and timetable?
  • Experience: Does the provider have experience working with children in schools and vacation care settings?
  • Safety: Are appropriate qualifications, checks, insurance and risk management arrangements in place?

A well-planned incursion should be enjoyable for children while fitting smoothly into your existing holiday program.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the best activities for vacation care?

A balanced vacation care program can include sports incursions, STEM workshops, creative arts, outdoor adventures, cooking activities and team challenges. The best mix depends on children's ages, interests and your available facilities.

What activities are suitable for OSHC programs?

Popular OSHC activities include modified sports, arts and crafts, group games, science experiments, cooking and themed activity days. Programs should be adaptable for different ages and abilities.

Summer Sports Incursions in Melbourne: Active Programs for Schools & Vacation Care 2026/27

Summer Sports Incursions in Melbourne: Active Programs for Schools & Vacation Care 2026/27


As Melbourne moves into spring and summer, it’s the perfect time for schools, OSHC providers, vacation care programs and community organisations to get children outside, active and trying something new.

Whether you’re planning an end-of-year activity, Term 4 sports program, January vacation care calendar or a special sports day, Fit For Kids Co. brings fun, professionally delivered sports programs directly to your venue.

With a growing range of sports available, we can create anything from a one-hour incursion through to a full day of sporting activities.

 

Why Sport Works So Well in Spring & Summer

 

The warmer months open up more opportunities to make use of school ovals, courts, playgrounds and outdoor spaces.

For children, it’s also a great opportunity to:

  • - Try a sport they may never have played before

  • - Develop fundamental movement and coordination skills

  • - Build confidence through physical activity

  • - Socialise and work with different children

  • - Spend more time being active and away from screens

  • - Discover a sport they may want to continue playing

Most importantly, our programs are designed to make sport fun and accessible, regardless of a child’s previous experience.

Summer Sports Incursions in Melbourne

 

Fit For Kids Co. offers a wide range of sports that can be adapted to different ages, group sizes, spaces and program formats.

 

MyGolf

Golf might not be the first sport that comes to mind when planning a school or vacation care program and that’s exactly what makes it such a great option.

As an official MyGolf provider, Fit For Kids Co. can introduce children to golf through modified equipment, games and challenges designed specifically for juniors.

MyGolf can be delivered on school ovals, synthetic areas and other suitable spaces, with equipment provided.

It’s a fantastic option for schools looking to give students an experience that is a little different from their regular sporting activities.

 

Tennis Hot Shots

Summer in Melbourne means tennis.

With the Australian summer of tennis approaching, Term 4 and the January holiday period are ideal times to introduce children to the sport.

Our Tennis Hot Shots sessions use modified equipment to make tennis accessible for junior players, with activities focusing on movement, racquet skills, rallying and plenty of games.

Programs can be adapted to existing tennis courts or suitable school and community spaces.

 

Pickleball

Looking for something different?

Pickleball has become one of our most popular options for holiday and group programs.

Combining elements of tennis, badminton and table tennis, the sport is quick to learn and allows children to start playing games relatively quickly.

That makes it particularly suited to vacation care, OSHC and one-off school incursions where you want children engaged from the beginning.

Shuttle Smash Badminton

Not every Melbourne summer day is made for being outside!

Shuttle Smash provides schools and organisations with an excellent indoor option for sports halls and gymnasiums.

As an official Badminton Australia program, Shuttle Smash introduces children to badminton through modified activities, racquet skills, movement and games.

It can work particularly well as part of a summer program where having an indoor option provides greater flexibility.

Soccer, Basketball & Netball

Sometimes the classics are exactly what children want.

Our Soccer-Fit, Basketball-Fit and Netball-Fit programs combine skill development with challenges, games and modified match play.

Sessions can be delivered as standalone incursions or combined as part of a multi-sport day.

Table Tennis

Small space? No problem.

Table tennis can provide another engaging option for schools and organisations looking to offer children something different.

Our Ping.Pong.Play program introduces students to the fundamentals of table tennis in a fun and accessible format and can be incorporated into broader multi-sport programming.

 

End-of-Year School Sports Activities

The final weeks of Term 4 can be challenging for schools.

The weather is warmer, students are excited about the holidays and schools are often looking for activities that are structured but still feel like an end-of-year celebration.

A sports incursion can be used for:

  • - End-of-year celebration days

  • - Year-level activity days

  • - Sports days

  • - Wellbeing days

  • - House activities

  • - PE enrichment

  • - Reward activities

  • - Transition programs

Rather than transporting students off campus, our coaches can come to your school with the equipment needed to deliver the activities.

Programs can also be tailored around the number of students, available facilities and time you have available.

 

Summer Vacation Care & OSHC Incursions

Planning a December or January vacation care program?

Fit For Kids Co. works with OSHC providers, councils and community organisations to bring structured sports activities directly to children during the school holidays.

Incursions can be delivered as individual sports or as a multi-sport experience, giving children the chance to rotate through several different activities.

Depending on your venue and group, this could include a combination of:

Tennis + Pickleball + Badminton

or

Golf + Soccer + Basketball

or a completely customised program.

We bring the coaching expertise and sporting equipment, helping make the activity simple for coordinators to incorporate into their holiday calendar.

 

Before & After School Sport for Term 4 and Term 1

Spring is also an ideal time for schools to introduce a new before-school or after-school sports program.

Fit For Kids Co. can deliver weekly programs across the term, including:

Tennis Hot Shots, MyGolf, Shuttle Smash Badminton, Pickleball, Basketball, Soccer, Netball, Table Tennis, Cricket and Athletics/Run Club.

Programs can provide students with the opportunity to explore a sport outside traditional PE while creating another avenue for children to be active within their school community.

Schools can also trial a new sport before deciding whether to introduce it as an ongoing program.

 

We Bring Sport to You

One of the biggest advantages of a Fit For Kids Co. incursion is flexibility.

We work with:

  • - Primary schools

  • - Independent and government schools

  • - OSHC and vacation care providers

  • - Councils

  • - Community organisations

  • - Early learning settings

  • - Holiday programs

Programs can be tailored according to your group size, age range, available space and objectives.

From a small group trying golf for the first time to a large sports day involving multiple groups and activities, we can work with you to develop a suitable format.

 

Planning Your Spring or Summer Program?

 

With Term 4, end-of-year celebrations and the summer school holidays approaching, now is a great time to start planning your sports activities.

Whether you’re searching for a sports incursion in Melbourne, a vacation care incursion, an OSHC school holiday activity, an end-of-year school activity or a new before or after-school sports program, Fit For Kids Co. can help.

Our goal is simple: create positive sporting experiences that help children discover activities they enjoy and encourage them to stay active for life.

More Ways to Play: Fit For Kids Co. Expands Its School Sport Program

At Fit For Kids Co., we believe the best way to help children develop a lifelong love of sport is simple: give them more opportunities to find a sport they enjoy.

That’s why we’re excited to continue expanding the range of junior sport programs we deliver across Melbourne schools, with three nationally recognised programs now forming an important part of our school offering: Tennis Hot Shots, Shuttle Smash and MyGolf.

 

Three Sports. One Simple Goal.

Each program introduces children to sport in a way that is fun, accessible and appropriate for their age and ability.

 

Tennis Hot Shots

 

 

Tennis Australia’s Tennis Hot Shots program uses modified courts, racquets and lower-compression balls to make tennis easier for children to learn from their very first session.

Through games, challenges and match play, students develop their coordination, movement and racquet skills while building confidence on court.

 

 

Shuttle Smash

 

 

Developed by Badminton Australia, Shuttle Smash introduces students to badminton through fun, game-based activities and modified equipment.

The program develops hand-eye coordination, movement and racquet skills while providing a fast-paced sport that can be enjoyed by students of all experience levels.

 

 

MyGolf

 

 

Fit For Kids Co. now also delivers Golf Australia’s official MyGolf program.

Using innovative Golfway equipment, MyGolf allows children to experience golf in a safe and accessible school environment. Sessions can be delivered on school ovals, synthetic surfaces and indoor courts, without the need for a traditional golf course.

Students learn the fundamentals of golf through games and challenges designed to build skills, confidence and enjoyment.

 

 

Making More Sports Possible at School

 

One of the biggest advantages of these programs is their flexibility.

Schools don't necessarily need specialist sporting facilities to introduce students to tennis, badminton or golf. Modified equipment and adaptable session formats allow our coaches to transform existing school spaces into engaging sporting environments.

This opens the door for schools to offer students a broader range of sporting experiences through before-school, after-school, holiday and tailored school programs.

 

 

Helping Every Child Find Their Sport

 

Not every child is going to love the same sport, and we think that's a good thing.

A student who doesn't connect with football or basketball might discover badminton. Another might find their confidence through tennis, golf or one of the many other sports they experience at school.

Our role is to make those first experiences positive.

By creating welcoming, inclusive and enjoyable programs, we want children to associate being active with something they want to do, rather than something they have to do.

That philosophy sits behind everything we deliver at Fit For Kids Co. and our goal of creating Sport For Life.

 

 

Bring a New Sport to Your School

 

Fit For Kids Co. works with schools across Melbourne to deliver junior sport programs during the school term and holidays.

Alongside Tennis Hot Shots, Shuttle Smash and MyGolf, our broader offering includes basketball, soccer, netball, pickleball, table tennis, athletics and more.

Whether you're looking to introduce a new co-curricular program, trial a sport with your students or add something different to your next school holiday program, we'd love to hear from you.

Why MyGolf Is One of the Best Sports for Primary School Children

Why MyGolf Is One of the Best Sports for Primary School Children


Helping kids build confidence, concentration and a lifelong love of being active.

When people think of golf, they often picture adults spending hours on a golf course. But today's junior golf looks very different.

Through Golf Australia's MyGolf program, children are introduced to golf in a fun, inclusive and game-based environment that focuses on movement, confidence and enjoyment before technique.

At Fit For Kids Co, we're excited to now be delivering official MyGolf programs to schools across Melbourne, giving children the opportunity to experience one of the world's most rewarding sports in a way that's engaging, accessible and age-appropriate.

 

What is MyGolf?

MyGolf is Golf Australia's national junior introductory program, designed specifically for children aged 5–12 years.

Rather than traditional golf lessons, MyGolf uses modified equipment, creative games and skill-based challenges that allow every child to experience success from their very first session.

The emphasis is simple:

  • - Have fun
  • - Learn new skills
  • - Build confidence
  • - Make friends
  • - Develop a love of being active

- No previous golf experience is required.


More Than Just Golf

While children learn the fundamentals of putting, chipping, pitching and striking the ball, they are also developing a wide range of important life skills.

Concentration and Focus

Golf encourages children to slow down, think carefully and stay present in the moment. These are valuable skills that often transfer into the classroom.

Patience and Resilience

Every golfer hits good shots and bad shots.

Children quickly learn that mistakes are simply opportunities to improve, helping build resilience, perseverance and a positive mindset.

Hand-Eye Coordination

The variety of golf movements develops coordination, balance, timing and body awareness in a way that's enjoyable and challenging.

Confidence

One of the best things about golf is that children compete against themselves as much as anyone else.

Every successful shot becomes a personal achievement, helping children build genuine confidence regardless of athletic ability.

 

A Sport Every Child Can Enjoy

Unlike many traditional sports, golf doesn't rely on speed, strength or size.

Children of all abilities can participate together, making it one of the most inclusive sports available.

Many children who may not feel confident in team sports discover they absolutely love golf.

Safe for Schools


One of the biggest advantages of MyGolf is how easily it fits into a school environment.

Using Golf Australia's modified Golfway equipment, sessions can be delivered safely on:

  • - School ovals
  • - Synthetic courts
  • - Basketball courts
  • - Gymnasiums
  • - Multipurpose spaces

 

The lightweight clubs and soft foam balls allow children to experience real golf skills while maintaining a safe learning environment.

Learning Through Play

Every Fit For Kids Co. MyGolf session is built around games.

Instead of repetitive drills, children might:

  • Score points by landing balls on colourful targets
  • Navigate obstacle challenges
  • Work in teams to complete skill stations
  • Play fun putting competitions
  • Build confidence through progressive games

When children are having fun, they're learning without even realising it.

Why Schools Love MyGolf

Schools are increasingly looking for activities that are:

  • Inclusive
  • Safe
  • Easy to run
  • Engaging for all abilities
  • Different from traditional sports

MyGolf ticks every box.

Whether it's delivered before school, after school, during PE, at lunchtime or as part of a holiday program, it provides students with a fresh sporting experience while supporting physical literacy and student wellbeing.

Why We Chose to Partner with Golf Australia

At Fit For Kids Co., we've spent more than 10 years helping children discover the joy of sport.

We're proud to partner with some of Australia's leading sporting organisations, and becoming an official Golf Australia MyGolf provider allows us to offer children a nationally recognised program delivered by experienced coaches who understand how to make learning fun.

Our goal has always been simple:

Help every child discover a sport they enjoy and give them the confidence to stay active for life.

For some children, that sport might just be golf.

Beyond the Game: Why Kids Need More Opportunities to Discover Sport

Beyond the Game: Why Kids Need More Opportunities to Discover Sport

Helping children find the sport they love,  and the confidence that comes with it

 

For many children, sport starts with a simple moment.

A first successful rally in tennis.

A perfectly timed hit in badminton.

A goal scored with friends.

A great shot in golf.

A child who finally feels confident enough to join in.

At Fit For Kids Co, we believe these moments are much bigger than sport. They are opportunities for children to build confidence, develop friendships and create healthy habits that can last a lifetime.

Sport is not just about finding the next elite athlete. It is about helping every child discover something they enjoy.

The changing landscape of kids sport

The way children participate in sport is changing.

Many families are looking for activities that are:

  • - Fun and welcoming for all abilities
  • - Easy to access
  • - Less focused on pressure and competition
  • - Designed around positive experiences
  • - Helping children stay active in a world full of screens


Traditional sports will always have an important place, but there is also a growing need for children to experience a wider range of activities.

A child who may not enjoy football or cricket might discover a passion for tennis, badminton, pickleball, golf or another sport they never thought they would try.

Sometimes the biggest challenge is simply giving them the opportunity.

 

Why exposure to different sports matters

The early years of sport should be about exploration.

Before children specialise, they benefit from developing a broad range of movement skills including:

  • - Coordination
  • - Balance
  • - Agility
  • - Speed
  • - Reaction time
  • - Problem solving
  • - Communication

Different sports develop different skills.

Tennis helps children develop:

  • Hand-eye coordination
  • Movement patterns
  • Decision making
  • Confidence through individual improvement

Badminton develops:

  • Quick reactions
  • Agility
  • Concentration
  • Tactical thinking

Pickleball encourages:

  • Teamwork
  • Communication
  • Strategy
  • Inclusive participation

Golf develops:

  • Patience
  • Focus
  • Self-management
  • Respect and etiquette

The goal is not to decide what sport a child should play forever.

The goal is to help them discover what they enjoy.

 

Schools play a powerful role in creating active communities


Schools are one of the best places to introduce children to new sports.

Not every child has access to sporting clubs outside of school. Not every child feels comfortable joining a competitive team straight away.

School-based programs allow every student to participate in a safe, familiar environment.

This is why specialist sport programs and incursions have become such a valuable addition to primary school communities.

A quality school sport program can help students:

  • Improve physical literacy
  • Build confidence
  • Develop social connections
  • Experience success
  • Create positive relationships with movement

 

At Fit For Kids Co, we work with schools to deliver engaging programs that complement existing PE programs and provide children with experiences they may not otherwise have.

 

Moving kids away from screens and towards experiences

One of the biggest challenges facing families today is creating balance.

Technology is part of children's lives, but active experiences remain essential.

Sport provides something screens cannot:

  • Real friendships
  • Team experiences
  • Physical challenges
  • Confidence gained through effort
  • Memories created with others

The best sport experiences are the ones children want to come back to.

When kids leave a session saying:

“Can we do that again?”

“That was so much fun.”

“I want to try that sport.”

That is when we know we have made an impact.

 

The future of kids sport is about participation, not pressure

Every child deserves the chance to experience the benefits of sport.

Some children will become competitive athletes.

Others will simply discover an activity they love.

Both outcomes are valuable.

Our role as coaches, educators and parents is to create positive experiences that encourage children to stay active, confident and curious.

Because the greatest outcome of kids sport is not always the trophy.

It is the child who develops a lifelong love of being active.

 

Helping schools create more active students

Fit For Kids Co delivers specialist school sport programs across Melbourne, including:

  • Tennis Hotshots
  • Shuttle Smash Badminton
  • Pickleball programs
  • MyGolf
  • School sport incursions
  • Holiday programs

 

Our mission is simple:

Help kids discover sport, build confidence and create healthy habits for life.

If your school is looking to introduce new sporting experiences for students, we would love to help create a program that suits your community.
