Peek-A-Boo

The Peek A Boo Kindygym class is for toddlers aged 12mths to 20mths, and provides an opportunity for


the children to learn through play in a safe, fun environment. Your child will develop gross motor skills as well as perceptual skills, strength, coordination, flexibility, agility, balance and spacial awareness, just by doing what kids do best, playing and exploring. Through these fun learning experiences children develop critical skills that provide foundations for later learning. 

The gym will be set up in a safe but challenging way, and it will be your role as the parent/carer to encourage, guide and support your child throughout the session. The main content of the class will be exploration through free play.

Casual visits, come once, twice or three times a week!

We hope you and your child will enjoy this experience, and enjoy your time together at Peek A Boo

Kindy Gym

Our Kindy Gym program is the most reputable in Australia, under the direction of Gai Forrest who was NSW Kindergym Co-ordinator for five years.
   In these classes, the gym is set up in a safe, yet challenging environment so children from the ages of 18 months up can explore, experiment,and achieve with the support of their parents/carers.
   Our aim is to make learning fun while teaching the concepts of movement. The emphasis is on assisting development of fine and gross motor skills, and enhancing hand/eye co-ordination. Kindy Gym is the basis for all sports, teaching children important skills while developing their overall coordination.
  Our Kindy Gym program provides young children with the opportunity to explore many forms of movement through the use of a wide range of equipment, as well as some funky music and songs too!
   Parent participation is essential. Your role will be to encourage and support your child throughout the lesson.

The lessons are 45 minutes and the format is as follows:

  • Free Play:10–15 minutes of free play— the gym will be set up differently each week, offering new learning skills and problem solving activities.
  • Group time: All children, parents/carers, and coaches come together on the floor shapes to do warm-up activities, our special “days of the week” song, basic skills such as correct landing techniques, and action songs and activities incorporating our theme for the week.
  • Apparatus time: The children are free to explore the apparatus circuit, and coaches will be there to assist the main learning skills on different stations.
  • Cool down: A get-together on the floor shapes where we concentrate on fine motor skills and sing our goodbye song.

Kindy Rec

Our Kindy Rec programmes were developed as an “in-between” class between Kindy Gym FitNastics and Development Programs.
   In our popular Kindy Rec classes, children are aged 4–5yrs. This is a structured class.    Children come in to the gym and warm up for 10–15 minutes, learning basic skills and body shapes.
   Children are then placed into small groups and will do three apparatus stations each week. These apparatus change each week and include all Olympic apparatus such as beam, bars, parallel bars, floor, rings as well as long trampoline, pit, mini tramp and much more.
   A game or fine motor skill activity is done as cool down at the end of each class.
   This class is for children that are socially and physically ready to separate from parents.
