What to Expect
Experience a vibrant and welcoming youth centre where young people aged 10 to 18 can enjoy a variety of activities in a relaxed environment. The Shack offers a pool table, foosball, table tennis, PS4, Xbox 360, board games, sports gear, and comfy couches for chilling out. The urban art on the walls adds a cool backdrop for selfies and socialising.
Each day features a fun themed session, but participation in these is optional—there’s something for everyone whether you join in or just hang out. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the nearby basketball court, skate park, and oval.
This is a perfect opportunity for your child to make new friends, enjoy creative and active play, and have a safe, supervised space during the school holidays.
