Nurture Program
Our KinderGym program is both aged-based and ability-based designed specifically for gymnasts 5 years and under, and their parents in mind.
We offer classes Monday – Saturday mornings with our KinderGym coaching team and a free trial is available for new members to come along a test out a class before signing up for the term.
The program promotes the development of the whole child – physically, socially, emotionally and cognitively, in a safe, structured, multi-sensory environment, indoors. Learning through play in a stimulating, non-competitive environment assists children to develop to their full potential in readiness for kindergarten, school and sports.
Each session is directed towards empowering your child with the skills and confidence to hang, swing, spin, balance, skip, climb, throw, crawl and jump. It helps to provide the foundations for a lifetime of positive attitudes towards physical activity. While having fun, children learn to move and move to learn. Please feel free to call and have a chat (3369 8843) or email (beth@wdgymnastics.com.au) if you have any feedback/questions about our Kinder program.
Our enrolment page is here – Enrolments – there is also a class schedule on the Calendar/Timetable page with class times.
KinderTots (45min class / Walking to 3 years of age)
KinderTots is designed for children that are walking through to 3 years of age. Parent participation is required at this level so you can experience the fun of gymnastics with your little one! KinderTots is designed to encourage children to develop emotionally, socially, cognitively and physically in a safe and exciting environment.
KinderKids (60min class / 3-4 years of age)
KinderKids is a circuit-based program that develops strength, coordination, flexibility, motor skills and confidence which are all essential for a child’s holistic development. This age based program progresses skills each week and includes balancing, rolling, bouncing, swinging and twisting in a safe and fun environment, lead by our qualified coaching team. Theme weeks are included each term – adding variety and fun to all involved!
KinderFun (60min class / 4+ years of age – attending prep next year)
Our KinderFun children are often at an age where they want to assert their independence but also want to know that their parent/caregiver is not far away. Parents are required to be on hand should their child need them, but do not need to take part in the class otherwise. KinderFun classes encourage the children to be active listeners and learners on their own. The slightly more structured environment fosters the children’s ability to take directions from the coach whilst still provide an opportunity for children to grow, share, take turns, set goals and take risks within a fun and safe environment. Children develop at their own level with new successes and achievements every week within a learn through play based program.
