Young people in Selwyn will be spoilt for choice these school holidays, with fun activities and events planned from 1-15 October.

Make your own slime, a teen pool party, inflatable world, and a range of sports will be available to keep kids, teenagers and families entertained all holidays.

Council Group Manager Community Services and Facilities Denise Kidd says it’s always a delight to deliver activities that put a smile on so many faces.

“Our holiday events are designed to be creative and diverse, so there’s something for everyone. We’re really pleased to be offering a range of activities these holidays that are sure to be a hit with young people throughout the district.”

Activities include a wind chime workshop, indoor archery and holiday favourite, Fun Science with Amadeo. His magic science show will feature extreme illusions and big booms guaranteed to excite.
