Getting There

Mini adventurers and artistes assemble! Parents and carers: breathe sigh of relief – Fed Square is here to help you get through the April School holidays in one piece, with Fed Kidz!

Fed Kidz invites your little ones to explore the unknown, make new discoveries and get their creative juices flowing, with a full program of small-group workshops, activities (Dino Dig, anyone?), big screen gaming, live shows (Dora! PJ Masks! The (Very) Big Laugh Out!), family films and more – only at Fed Square.

Check out the full program below. Many activities require booking – so don’t forget to secure your child’s spot before they disappear, like the dinosaurs!
