Hop to the Darwin Waterfront on Saturday 11 April 2020 to enjoy the free Easter extravaganza from 9am to 1pm.

Mr & Mrs Easter Bunny will be nestled in their majestic Bunny Burrow, giving children the opportunity to take a photo and get a free chocolate egg and balloon. Photos will be taken by a professional photographer and shared on the Darwin Waterfront Facebook page after the event.

There’ll be plenty of fun for children of all ages with two jumping castles, two water slides and an inflatable obstacle course.

Dance the day away with a live kids’ DJ on the lawns playing festive songs to get you in the Easter spirit.

Hyper the Clown and Jemma the Jester will work their balloon twisting Easter magic and make everything from bunnies, animals and flowers. Yenz Entertainment will bring along her team of festival glitter artists to sprinkle about some magic and also get kids crafting at their sand art station.

Fairy Jill’s Enchanted Entertainment will have a free circus workshop with diabolos, juggling, spinning plates, poi and balance toys as well as a giant bubble play.

There will also be an Easter art and craft stand with plenty of creative fun on the day thanks to The Burning Circus.

Take a splash in the Recreation Lagoon and enjoy floating around on inflatables for the day.

Enjoy breakfast, brunch or lunch from the surrounding Waterfront retailers, pack a picnic and settle in for a day jam packed with fun or grab a sausage sizzle and stroll between the festivities.

Little Champs Academy is hosting its 3rd annual open day.
This year we are hosting an Easter egg hunt at the start from 9am – 9:30. Following which we have a program that gives children a chance to participate in free soccer workshops and games as well as have a chance to play in our Inflatable soccer field.

A play area and separate bouncy house will be set up for young children aged up to 4.

A “Design Your Own Jersey” colouring competition will also be held to raise scholarship money for youth to have chances to participate in soccer programs. Cost is $10.00 per entry and the winner will have their design printed onto an actual Soccer Jersey for them! No limits on entry.

This is a great way to spend Easter morning with the family!

Looking for activities to do with the kids during the upcoming Easter School Holidays?

Bring them to the Darwin Trailer Boat Club for dinner and a movie under the stars! 💫

For our next movie night we will be screening ‘TOY STORY’ (1995):
Andy’s favourite toy, Woody, is worried that after Andy receives his birthday gift, a new toy called Buzz Lightyear, his importance may get reduced. He thus hatches a plan to eliminate Buzz.

There’s no need to book, but get here early to secure a great spot. As soon as the sun sets, the movie will start.

‘The presenters were very knowledgeable, friendly and approachable. Answered questions very well and instilled confidence in me.’

‘I loved the experience of the speakers, seeing the Mum breastfeed, the videos and the information was very useful.’

‘Thank you so much. I really appreciated your honesty, kindness and support. The presenters were supportive of my choices and I didn’t feel they imposed on me. I liked the interaction, demonstration and activities.’

Having a Baby? Do you have questions about breastfeeding?

Come to our relaxed, information-packed sessions for expectant parents to learn why breastfeeding is important, the World Health Organisation recommendations for exclusivity, what to expect in the early weeks and how to support mothers to manage challenges.

Although breastfeeding the normal way to feed infants and young children, it is a learned skill. Most women, given time and support can, and do, breastfeed. Our aim is to provide expectant parents with the necessary skills, knowledge and resources to guide them in their breastfeeding journey.

Our courses expand on the information provided at antenatal classes and focus on preparing parents and carers for normal feeding patterns, ways to tell baby is getting enough and the undulating rhythms of those first days, weeks and months after their baby’s birth. For this reason, we encourage parents to attend while pregnant or early after the birth.

If you are not a member please join prior to booking at: https://www.breastfeeding.asn.au/membership/individual

Approx 4 hour workshop-style class, including time for refreshments
