Events for Kids in Queensland

Come to LEAF 2018 and ‘Rethink the future’ with Australia’s favourite gardener Costa Georgiadis and sustainable farmer and chef Paul West as we explore how we can all reduce, reuse and recycle and create a healthier world and future. Take a photography MasterClass with Steve Parish, or learn how to create a butterfly garden, turn your backyard into heaven for chickens, or make your own sugar-free jams, cheese and kimchi. With everything from workshops in up-cycling and sustainable gardening to delicious organic food and coffee and rides and activities for the kids, the whole family will have a great time at LEAF 2018. This FREE community festival will take place from 10am – 3pm, Sunday 27 May at Griffith University Logan Campus, 68 University Drive Meadowbrook, Qld.

The St.George Queensland Reds have their eyes firmly fixed on 2018, with a renewed hunger to reach their potential. Head Coach Brad Thorn took the Queensland U20s to an undefeated national title earlier this year, before steering Bond University Queensland Country on a path to lifting the National Rugby Championship trophy – taking the side from the wooden spoon to the title in a year. Queensland Rugby Union has also added further experience to its coaching staff with the appointment of for Munster, Wallabies and Melbourne Rebels coach Tony McGahan. With major re-signings and new star recruits, the Reds Family is excited about the season ahead and looking forward to wearing the jersey with renewed pride.

Laser Sporting is surprisingly athletic and a huge amount of fun. The difference between League and regular Laser Tag, is that you get to experience Laser Tag as part of an organised 5 person team. Your team will develop good communication and technical skills throughout the 10 week season to become a cohesive unit by finals time. 1st Division League caters for intermediate and advanced skill levels, and ages 13 years to adult. It is recommended that players start by attending one of our Masterclass events, however this is not a prerequisite. The learning curve is steep, but you will be learning from the best in the business! We utilise a unique handicapping system that automatically grades players on performance, and then gives each team a % handicap on their team scores based upon the experience level of the players on the team. The system has proven successful in giving all teams a chance no matter what experience level they might be.

Laser Sporting is surprisingly athletic and a huge amount of fun. It's perfect for kids who are not into traditional sports and a great way to get kids active. The difference between Junior League and regular Laser Tag, is that you get to experience Laser Tag as part of an organised team. By the completion of your first season you will have developed new skills, and developed your ability to work within a team. Junior League caters for ages 8 to 14, so it's the first stepping stone into the world of laser sporting. We have a number of experienced players who administer the league and help guide new players as they develop their Laser Tag skills. Junior League is played on a Wednesday night from 4pm to 6pm at 561 Gympie Rd, Lawnton. The season runs for 10 weeks during school term and breaks for school holidays. $12pp per week
