Make Saturdays your child’s favorite day of the week – a time for developing friendships, learning new skills, gaining independence, and most importantly, having fun!
The school holidays are a time to relax, refresh, and have fun. With a single, convenient pick-up and drop-off location in Penrith, NADO makes it easy for parents and caregivers to sit back and relax, knowing their child is having a blast while developing into their best, most confident selves.
Each weekday during the school holidays is packed with exciting activities! From visits to amusement and aquatic parks, zoos, museums, cinemas, indoor and outdoor recreation centres – and much more, we have something for everyone to enjoy.
Our program aims to encourage participants to learn new skills, make new friends, and experience activities they may not encounter every day. Children are supported in playing games, participating in team sports, building friendships, and getting creative with art, craft, and drama activities. They also have the chance to visit local attractions and engage in enriching experiences.
All children’s activities are run by NADO support staff and are tailored to individual needs and requirements, ensuring safe environments that build confidence and foster new skills.
