Children in the City of Logan can access more than 250 different school holiday activities in December and January through Logan Libraries, the KRANK School Holiday program and Logan Art Gallery.

Activities range from puppet shows, Christmas craft and artist workshops to boxing cardio workouts, bee keeping and phone photography sessions.

Mayor Jon Raven said Logan City Council had loads of boredom-busting activities planned.

“Free and low-cost activities are a big focus of our holiday program,” Mayor Raven said.

“After a big year at school, Logan kids and teens are ready to let their hair down and we have lots of safe and fun things for them to try.”
