Huntingwood sits close to some of Western Sydney's bigger venues, and Roolu lists karting, a swim school, art and physie classes, and several events nearby. Here is what is on our list for the school break.

The Summer school holidays run from 18 Dec 2026 to 27 Jan 2027 (starting in 6 weeks). Those are NSW public-school dates. Catholic and independent schools can differ, so check your own school's calendar.

Events near Huntingwood

  • Teddy Bear Picnic & Christmas Markets, in Blacktown
  • Future Fiestas, in Blacktown
  • The Criminal Process: UNSW Youth Legal Workshop, in Blacktown
  • Eastern Creek Viral Food Festival, in Eastern Creek
  • Bushcare meet ups at Nurragingy Reserve and Doonside Crescent Bushland Reserve

We don't hold times, ages or booking details. Check each organiser's page, and confirm the legal workshop suits your child's age before you plan around it.

Classes in Doonside

Doonside has the closest listed classes: Beginners, Intermediate and Advanced art classes, and Physie for three age groups, 3 to 6, 7 to 8 and 9 to 12 years. Ask the provider what runs during the break.

Clubs and venues

  • Race Central and Eastern Creek International Karting Raceway, in Eastern Creek
  • Sydney Motorsport Park, in Minchinbury
  • Aquafin Swim School, in Blacktown
  • Victory Cheer and Dance and 187 Muay Thai Boxing & Fitness, in Eastern Creek
  • Blacktown City Bears Junior Rugby League Club, in Blacktown
  • H.E Laybutt Sporting Complex, in Prospect

Age limits matter for venues like karting, and we don't hold them. Check the minimum age, any height rules and the price directly with the venue before you promise a child anything.

Planning the day

  • Book the high-energy activity first, then fit a quieter one around it.
  • Check travel time between Eastern Creek, Blacktown and Doonside before you plan two things in one day.
  • Ask the organiser about booking, costs and what to bring.
