All the magic of vacation care — finally for our youngest learners.

For years, the older kids have had all the fun during the school holidays – but now it’s our youngest learners’ turn.

Mini Masterminds Easter Holiday Club brings a vacation-care–style program designed specifically for children aged 0–6, running across Mini Masterminds centres from 7 April 2026 to 17 April 2026.

Each centre has created its own exciting 9-day calendar filled with daily activities, incursions and themed experiences – all grounded in early learning, creativity and meaningful play. From messy play and sensory discovery to puppet theatre, easter egg hunts, cooking, science experiments, community excursions and more, there’s something magical happening every day.

Activities are tailored for:

  • 0–2 years (babies and toddlers)
  • 3–5 years (preschoolers)
  • Whole-centre experiences suitable for all ages

This program gives families a playful, educational and dependable option across the Easter break – while giving children a chance to learn, explore, create and make new friends in a safe, nurturing environment.
