Activity Days

Activity Days are free to young people who are registered with our Defence Kids or Core Kids programs!

Activity days are held throughout the year, providing an opportunity for children to connect, improve mental health literacy and improve help-seeking behaviours. Kookaburra Kids catch up with friends from camp for a fun FREE day out. Activities can include ice skating, laser tag, bowling, movies, putt putt golf and beach activities just to name a few.

All activity days include a sharing Chat Group session of psycho-education integrated with fun activities ensuring kids feel consistently supported. Activity days are delivered by a Program Coordinator and trained volunteer leaders.
