Save the card games for a rainy day – play a friendly, one hour game of indoor lawn bowling (bocce) instead. The ‘aim’ is to have fun, but the person who rolls their ball closest to the jack ball gets to call themselves the winner!

Have some ‘spare’ time? Strike up some fun at our newly renovated 4-lane, 5-pin bowling alley, featuring advanced pin-setting technology, gutters, automatic bumpers, synthetic lanes and a surround sound speaker system. A sports attendant will be on hand to assist bowlers.

Have a Ball (All ages) Cost: $269.25 for up to 20 participants including the host’s child.
It’s GAME DAY! Put your game face on and play your favorite sport with friends… from basketball, volleyball, soccer, ball hockey, dodgeball, tennis, …your pick! Our sports attendant will help organize and referee a one-hour sports session of your choice. All you need to do is bring your A-game!

Splash Bash (All ages) Cost: $298.50 for up to 30 participants including the host’s child.
Water you waiting for? Soak in the fun and enjoy one-hour of pool time with your friends! Two lifeguards will be on duty to ensure your pool party is a safe one.

‘Specialty’ Parties & Playdates

Hip Hop Hooray! (All ages) Cost: $255 for up to 15 participants including the host’s child.
When you feel the beat and you just can’t stop–time to pop, lock and drrrr-op. You and your crew will groove and move through some basic choreography step-by-step. Style code encouraged–come as you are or stage-ready to perform in a little show at the end to showcase your moves.

Like Royals (All ages) Cost: $255 for up to 15 participants including the host’s child.
Hear ye, hear ye! Your royal highness (the guest of honour) requests the presence of all in the kingdom that love to dress up and dance. Incorporating themes and music from Disney classics, the celebration will be filled with enchantment, interactive storytelling, royalty-themed games and a mini dance routine. Royal attire is a must!

Open Canvas (Recommended ages 7+) Cost: $321 for up to 15 participants including the host’s child.
Let your imagination Gogh! You’ll learn to explore mixing colours and how to apply different brushstrokes to create your own great masterpiece.
