KidsPlace School Programs

KidsPlace is a fully locally owned & operated Circus Acrobatic training centre, providing our own in house and in-school visiting Gymnastic & Circus Acrobatic programs.

We combine the core elements of basic gymnastic skills with fun circus acrobatic performing apparatus to made exercise more active and exciting whilst combating issues such as child obesity all too prevalent today to suit children and adults of ages, shapes and sizes.

 

There is one common bond between all those involved in our programs and that is a passion for exercise, and the benefits it provides growing bodies. Our programs will increase your student's fitness, flexibility, strength, spatial awareness and teach them a variety of different gymnastics skills and circus acrobatics. Your students will be having so much fun they won't realize how hard they are working!


Unique in our approach

KidsPlace programs are 100% activity, 100% of the time.

We have designed a program that is fast, fun and most importantly safe. Our program involves a steady progression of skills that you can follow from lesson plans that are provided to all our participating schools...

In-School Programs

KidsPlace In-School programs are conducted on your premises meaning there are no travel costs for your students and no time is wasted.

Programs can be run indoors or outside on any sealed surface, and additionally for those who wish we can cater to take visiting school groups at our training centre where we have more apparatus to choose from.

Equipment

We offer the largest range of specialized equipment available in Geelong including a foam matted floor area, gymnastic mats, and mini trampoline as well as Circus apparatus including Spinning Plates, Diabolo, Hoola Hoops, Unicycles, Juggling and many, many more.

KidsPlace Programs

Our programs provide a foundation that no other activity can.

The combination of coordination, strength, flexibility and spatial awareness are not only the fundamental skills for all other sports, but are also skills for life.

All School KidsPlace programs are progressive, safe, effective and fun. Children are encouraged to strive for, and reach individual goals. Programs cater for all education stages and can be adapted to suit individual school and student needs.

Logistics

We visit the school once a week for five or ten weeks and the lesson duration can be 30, 40, 45 minutes depending of what fits best with your school's timetable.

After a warm-up and a demonstration of the skills on each apparatus, the class is divided into 5 groups and the students rotate through all stations.

Because of the setting up and packing away time for the equipment, this program is best suited to schools with 4 or more classes.

Classes are designed for pre-primary through to year 7. 

The skills become progressively harder from year to year and more challenging as the weeks pass. A large range of incentives are built into the program, with choices available for you to choose from:

•  A five OR ten week course introducing basic gymnastics skills and fun circus acrobatic activities.

•  A 1 day program as a grand finale to your existing circus acrobatic, PMP or fundamental movement program

•  20 or 40 week courses can be visit or training in our local training centre and we will help you to put a school performance program together for you.
