Tallawong has plenty within reach for the break: library sessions for little ones, dance and sport classes in Rouse Hill, swimming, and some festive events. The Summer school holidays run from 18 Dec 2026 to 27 Jan 2027 (starting in 6 weeks). Those are New South Wales public-school dates, and Catholic and independent schools can differ, so check your own school's calendar.
Library sessions and events
Vinegar Hill Memorial Library in Rouse Hill has Baby Bounce, Preschool Storytime and Toddler Time. Beyond the library, there is a children's Swap your style party in The Ponds, Santa Photos at The Vineyard, and a Family Fun Day in Quakers Hill. Check each organiser for times, booking and cost.
Classes by age
For the three to six set, Jazz Hip Hop and Ballet (both for ages 3 to 6) are listed in Rouse Hill. For older kids, Jazz Hip Hop for ages 7 to 11 is listed in Rouse Hill. Little Alphas and Juniors are also in Rouse Hill, as is Rams Junior Touch Football. Ask each organiser about the age range, and whether classes run through the break.
Clubs and schools
In Rouse Hill there are Charming Colours Art School, Ponds Music Academy, Blacktown Sinhala School and Apeiron Martial Arts & Parkour. Schofields has Schofields Crusaders Junior Rugby League club and Schofields Cricket Club. 123 Swim is listed in Riverstone, and Canvas walls school of art in Quakers Hill. Roolu does not hold holiday timetables for these, so ask directly.
Planning the days
- Choose one regular activity as an anchor for the week.
- Add a festive outing or two for variety.
- Group things by suburb. Most listings are in Rouse Hill, with others in Schofields, Riverstone, The Ponds and Quakers Hill.
- Check booking rules and holiday hours before you set off.
- Leave a few open days for the park, a rest, or a swim.
The events and clubs below are kept up to date, and the organisers' own pages have the final word on times, prices and ages.
