Enhance the lives of your children with Harbour's PlayGym sessions - where children and parents learn through play.

 

We pride ourselves on running a programme that highlights health and active movement and designed to meet each child's needs. We develop children's motor skills through exploring dominant movement patterns and providing physical challenges in music-based, fun-filled sessions for 2 to 5 year olds.

With a low child-adult ratio, our professional instructors are able to encourage and challenge each and every child to his or her fullest potential.

Harbour's 'playgym-nastic' environment is set up to encourage children to climb, slide, balance, jump, crawl, hang, swing, throw, and experience their world at their own rate in a non-sexist, non-competitive atmosphere. 

Class Structure  ages 2—5 yrs 45 minutes

Two circuits are offered in the 45 min session. Children attend once a week over a school term.

Weekday classes ($97.00 per term) are split into age groups and as they get older they move into a later class.

Saturday classes ($97.00 per term) are generally mixed except for the 11.00 am classes which is for 4+ yrs.

Class numbers are capped at 20, with two qualified coaches per class. The programme is structured to encourage children AND PARENTS to experiment and get involved in physical activity in a safe and stimulating environment.

The emphasis is on fun and learning the basic dominant movement patterns and skills appropriate to each age group.

All PlayGym classes involve parental assistance.

Keeping the Beat

All it takes is two sticks and a musical beat to feed a child's brain and stimulate learning.

That's the message Tessa Rose Productions strummed when they performed to a gymnasium full of pre-school movers and shakers this week with their version of songs specifically created with children's developmental needs in mind.

Cute and catchy tunes with repetitive lyrics had mini-musicians clicking ice-cream sticks to mimic beats while more adventurous ones danced and swayed to the rhythm.   

Tessa Grigg says music provides the best opportunity for children to learn. It enhances rhythm, language development, co-ordination and motor skills.                                      (Nov/06)
