Nurture Program
Kindergym/Under 5’s
Our Nurture KinderGym program is both aged-based and ability-based designed specifically for gymnasts 5 years and under, and their parents in mind. The program promotes the development of the whole child – physically, socially, emotionally and cognitively, in a safe, structured, multi-sensory environment, indoors. Learning through play in a stimulating, non-competitive environment assists children to develop to their full potential in readiness for kindergarten, school and sports.
Each session is directed towards empowering your child with the skills and confidence to hang, swing, spin, balance, skip, climb, throw, crawl and jump. It helps to provide the foundations for a lifetime of positive attitudes towards physical activity. While having fun, children learn to move and move to learn.
We offer classes at both our Bardon and Enoggera Venues. We run the classes to the state school terms (usually 10 weeks). We understand that little people need to try lots of different activities to find what is right for them, so here at WDYC we offer a free trial class for all new members to come along a test out a class. Please note, trial bookings are required for attendance to any of our Nurture KinderGym Classes.
Please feel free to call and have a chat (3369 8843) or email (reception@wdgymnastics.com.au) if you have any feedback/questions about our Nurture KinderGym Program.

From walking age to prep prep
Kinder Gym For All is designed for children that are walking through to 5 years of age (pre prep) and is designed to encourage children to learn through a play based environment to develop emotionally, socially, cognitively and physically in a safe and exciting environment. Activities created to encourage fine and gross motor movements for example running, jumping, climbing, pincer grasp, transferring objects from one hand to other. For the older children in the class we like to encourage the children to be active listeners and learners on their own. It is a structured environment fostering the children’s ability to take directions from the coach whilst providing an opportunity for children to grow, share, build friendships and take risks within a fun and safe environment whilst learning fundamental gymnastic movements. Parents/or carer is required to be on premises and assist the child where needed.

Kinder Prep classes are for those children who are at an age/ability where they want to assert their independence and are showing self-confidence with their gymnastics. The structured program focuses on developing the fundamental skills like strength, flexibility, coordination, balance, and body control, all while laying a strong foundation for a healthy habit of physical fitness throughout a child's lifetime and preparing them for their transition to school in the following year.
