RINKA Summer Camp Activities in Maugherow

What to expect?

High-Energy Games

Imagine games that get your child’s heart pumping and laughter bubbling up. Think tag variations, capture the flag with a twist, relay races with fun props, or even cooperative games that involve working together as a team.

Obstacle Courses

These aren’t your average gym class obstacle courses! RINKA’s courses will be creative and challenging, using mats, tunnels, cones, hoola hoops, and other equipment to test agility, balance, and coordination. They might even have a summer theme, like navigating a beach-themed obstacle course or wild waves ocean challenge, evoking imaginations as much as fuelling fitness!

Parachute Play

This classic camp activity is a great way for children to work together, communicate, and have fun. They’ll learn cooperative movements to create different shapes and patterns with the parachute, fostering teamwork and problem-solving skills.

Movement to Music

Get ready to groove! RINKA’s movement to music sessions will incorporate a variety of genres and tempos. Children will learn basic dance moves, express themselves creatively, and improve their coordination while burning off energy.

RINKA Ru Activity Session

Each day, we will work through our RINKA Ru activity workbook that takes children on a creative journey to discover all the different ways that RINKA Ru enjoys health, fitness and wellbeing. Everyone will take their workbook home at the end of camp to share with you all the fun challenges they learned!

Fun-filled Summer-Themed Activities

No camp would be complete without visiting some summer-themed favourites! Volleyball, balloon play and sports day will all make an appearance during camp.

Athletics, Gymnastics, and Ball Skills

RINKA camps will introduce children to fundamental movement skills in a fun and engaging way. They might learn basic gymnastics moves like rolls and jumps, practice throwing and catching balls, or participate in fun athletic activities like mini-hurdles or beanbag throws.

Relaxation

Even the most energetic campers need a break! Relaxation time might involve story time, stretching exercises, or mindfulness activities that help children focus and recharge before diving back into the fun.

Fitness and Health Challenges

These challenges will be designed to be age-appropriate and inclusive. Think obstacle course races, timed relays with a focus on teamwork, or even fun “scavenger hunts” that involve physical activity. They’ll help children get active while learning about the importance of health.

RINKA’s Philosophy

At RINKA, we’re all about empowering children to feel their best, fall in love with movement, and nurture their health and well-being. Our summer camp curriculum is carefully designed to offer a wide variety of activities that cater to different interests and abilities.

We believe that camp should be a positive and encouraging environment where every child’s effort is celebrated. Our goal is to help children build resilience, confidence, and a love of learning.
