This is a drop-in program for young people during the school term; no formal enrolment is required and sessions are held weekly on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. The program is intentional about being a free, low-barrier after-school activity for families in the local area.
Sessions run from 15:00 to 17:00 and are suitable for school-aged children and teenagers looking for supervised after-school activities, arts and games. The schedule is consistent, making it easier for parents to plan regular pickups and routines.
As a drop-in model, capacity may vary and some activities are first-come, first-served. Youth workers facilitate activities, encourage positive social connections and can help with referrals to other youth services if required.
The sessions take place at Belmore Youth And Resource Centre, 38-40 Redman Parade, Belmore 2192, a central local venue that many families find easy to reach. This is a community-focused location convenient for local pickups and drop-offs.
Public transport and local bus routes service the Belmore area, and there is street parking nearby for short stays. Parents should check local parking restrictions for after-school pickup times and plan travel accordingly.
The centre aims to be accessible and welcoming; if you have specific access needs or mobility concerns, contact the council to confirm facilities and best entry points. Bringing a small reusable water bottle and sensible shoes is recommended for active play.
Behaviour expectations are in place to ensure everyone has a positive time; youth workers will set simple guidelines and support respectful play. If children have known behavioural or medical needs, letting staff know on arrival helps the team provide appropriate support.
Food is provided as part of the drop-in but parents should advise staff of any allergies or dietary requirements on arrival. The centre cannot guarantee allergen-free conditions, so please notify staff if your child has severe allergies.
The program is supervised by trained youth staff who can assist with referrals to other local services when needed. Parents remain responsible for collecting their children at the end of the session and ensuring timely pickup by 17:00.
This is a free program with no booking required; families can simply drop in during the scheduled times on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays during school term. The no-cost model makes it an affordable after-school activity option for busy households.
While bookings are not necessary, capacity is limited and popular activities may fill up quickly, so arriving early helps secure participation. For questions or to check availability, parents can contact the council phone number listed on the council website.
If you need more information about specific dates in the school term or accessibility, calling the council or visiting the local centre is recommended. The drop-in format makes it easy to try a session and see if it suits your child's interests and routine.
