Easter 2026 School Holidays

As the Easter school holidays approach, we’re gearing up for an egg-citing mix of events to keep the fun flowing!

While we take a short break from our regular aqua sessions (from April 3rd to 17th), fear not – we have a bunch of fantastic activities lined up for our participants to dive into during the change from their usual routine.

These Easter holidays, we’re offering three flexible ways to get involved, depending on what suits your family best.

From in-home sleepover support, to focused Aqua Intensives, to fun community days out — there’s something designed to support confidence, independence and connection while also recognising the needs of families and carers.

Take a look below and see which option feels like the right fit for you.

SOMETHING A LITTLE DIFFERENT

These holidays, we’re shaking things up a bit.

We recognise how hard everyone is working — especially our families, carers and helpers. You show up every day with dedication, patience and love. And right now, we also know many families are feeling the pressure of tighter NDIS budgets.

With this in mind, we’ve decided to pause our traditional sleepover camp for Easter and offer something a little different.

This time… AquaAccess4All comes to you.

In-Home Sleepover Support

Instead of travelling away, we’re offering sleepovers at your home, giving participants the comfort of familiar surroundings while still enjoying meaningful support and experiences.

This option can:

  • 💰 Help reduce costs (hourly support rates plus a flat sleepover fee, with less travel involved)
  • 🌿 Allow primary supports to leave the house for a short, well-earned break
  • 🛏️ Provide participants with all their usual creature comforts
  • 🚐 Still include outings to meet friends and explore the community

It’s flexible too — support could be arranged mid-week, on a weekend, or a combination depending on what works best for your family.

We have a number of experienced team members ready and equipped to transition into support at home, ensuring continuity of care in a space that feels safe and familiar.

Looking Ahead

We’ll be planning a traditional camp for winter, so this is a special Easter-focused alternative designed around current needs.

If this sounds like something that could work for your family, please submit your Expression of Interest via our booking page.

We’re considering dates after Easter in April and will work closely with families to determine the best option.

If you’re looking to access Short Term Respite (STR) but feel it may not suit your home environment, please still reach out — we’re always happy to have a conversation and explore possibilities.

We’re here to support not just participants, but whole families. 💙


AQUA INTENSIVES ARE BACK

Let’s go again… back to the pool!

Our pre–Term 1 January 3-Day Intensives were a fantastic success, with focused skill development, confidence building and great momentum heading into the school term.

Now we’re bringing them back for the Easter holidays.

MON APRIL 13TH – WED APRIL 15TH

We’re planning morning intensive blocks with up to four sessions running consecutively:

  • 9:15am – 45 minutes
  • 10:00am – 45 minutes
  • 10:45am – 30 minutes
  • 11:15am – 45 minutes

Sessions will be held at PARC and/or Casey RACE, depending on teacher availability and demand.

We also have a Plan B in place if needed — flexibility is part of how we operate.

If you’d like to request a place, please submit your Expression of Interest via our booking page.

Spots are limited and tend to fill quickly, so we encourage early expressions of interest.

We’re excited to build on the momentum from January and continue strengthening skills, confidence and independence in the water. 🌊💙


ADVENTURE AWAITS

Autumn is such a beautiful time of year to explore, and we have some fun community days planned for the Easter holidays.

We also understand that some working families may need longer day support or care outside of these set outings. If you require support on any day, please submit a request via the booking form and we’ll do our best to see if our team has capacity.

THURS APRIL 9TH
CITY ADVENTURE DAY

We’ll head into Melbourne to enjoy a walk through the autumn leaves in our beautiful gardens and parks, followed by a visit to the art gallery for a little creative inspiration.

A wander along the river, BYO lunch and drink, and we’ll share a small party bag of treats in the gardens.

🕘 9:30am – 4:00pm

FRI APRIL 10TH
WE ROCK THE SPECTRUM & BUNJIL PLACE

A fun and active morning at We Rock The Spectrum (Berwick), followed by lunch and time exploring Bunjil Place and the local area.

🕘 9:30am – 4:00pm

THURS APRIL 16TH
SPORTS & GAMES DAY

We’re aiming for a high-energy day with a visit to a local footy club, followed by more movement and games — think bowling, basketball or mini golf.

We can’t wait to move and shake with you all!

🕘 9:30am – 4:30pm

FRI APRIL 17TH
MESSY PLAY & MOVIE AFTERNOON

We’ll kick off the day at our favourite Little Buttons Messy Play, then finish with a relaxed movie or shopping visit at our local Bayside centre.

We’re looking forward to fresh air, movement, creativity and connection these holidays. 🍂💙

If you’d like to join any of the above outings — or need alternative day support — please submit your request through the booking page. Once completed, our team will confirm your booking via email ASAP.
