Summer Holiday Programme Wellington - 2026

If you’re looking for a holiday programme in Wellington that’s packed with creativity, confidence-building, and non-stop fun, our music-based holiday programme hits all the right notes. Designed for kids who love music (or want to discover it), this programme blends hands-on music-making with energetic activities and unforgettable experiences.


Based in the EBIS school hall, each day is filled with laughter, learning, and plenty of shenanigans. When the kids aren’t working on their music skills, they’re busy burning off energy with classic favourites like four square, table tennis, and badminton. It’s the perfect balance of creativity and play—keeping kids engaged, active, and smiling all day long.

Music sits at the heart of everything we do. This programme is ideal for singers, guitarists, piano players, and drummers of all experience levels. Whether a child is picking up an instrument for the first time or already confident on stage, our supportive environment helps them grow in skill and self-belief. And every Thursday is Band School Day, where kids come together to form bands, rehearse, and experience what it’s like to play as part of a group.


One of the most exciting and unique parts of the programme is daily busking. Each day, kids head out to busk, giving them real-world performance experience that builds confidence, resilience, and stage presence. It’s not just fun—it’s empowering. In fact, we’re proud to say this is New Zealand’s only music and busking holiday programme, offering something truly different from the usual holiday options.


From music sessions to sports games, from band practice to busking on the streets of Wellington, every day is an adventure. Our holiday programme isn’t just childcare—it’s a creative experience that inspires kids, helps them make friends, and leaves them with memories (and skills) that last long after the holidays are over.

If your child loves music, creativity, and a bit of controlled chaos, this is the holiday programme they’ll be talking about all year 🎶🎸🥁
