Families across the Redlands Coast can now access a range of school holiday activities organised by Redland City Council to keep young people engaged through the remainder of the school break. The program, which runs until 19 April 2026, includes a variety of outdoor adventures, craft sessions, and live performances tailored for children of all ages.
While many council facilities including local libraries, the IndigiScapes Centre, and the Redland Art Gallery were closed over the Easter long weekend, these venues have now reopened to host the holiday program. Mayor Jos Mitchell has encouraged families to review the available options and book early, noting that while many events are free, most require advance registration to secure a spot.
The IndigiScapes Centre in Capalaba, situated on 14.5 hectares of bushland, is hosting bonus nature playground activities on Wednesday mornings. These sessions will feature a wide range of equipment including tandem walkers, balance beams, ring toss, and various lawn games designed for outdoor play.
Redland City Libraries are also running a diverse schedule of events. Teenagers can participate in specialised workshops like custom pencil case making, polymer clay jewellery creation, and sessions in the Makerspace area at the Cleveland library. For younger children and families, the library schedule includes Punch and Judy puppet shows, sessions on first aid basics, and Quandamooka dance and storytelling sessions with performer Matt Burns.
Additional performances and activities are also being hosted at the Redland Performing Arts Centre as part of the broader council initiative to support youth engagement across the region.
