What’s happening?

School holidays are set to get busier at Clifford Gardens Shopping Centre, with free skateboarding workshops running daily from January 12 to 25.

The one-hour sessions are led by the team from Chiggy’s Skateboarding, giving kids the chance to ride, learn, and skate alongside experienced coaches.

Workshops will be held in the undercroft area next to The Salvos Store.

Why it matters

The program offers an active school holiday option that builds confidence and skills in a safe, supervised space.

It also gives families a free activity that keeps kids moving and learning during the break.

Local impact

Families across Toowoomba can access professional skate coaching without leaving the neighbourhood.

The sessions bring fresh energy into the centre while giving kids a positive, structured holiday activity.

By the numbers

  • Sessions run daily from January 12 to January 25, offering two full weeks of workshops during the school holidays.

  • Each day includes four one-hour sessions at 10 am, 11 am, 12 pm, and 1 pm, giving families flexible booking options.

  • The workshops are open to children aged 5 to 17 years, with skateboards and helmets supplied at no cost.

Zoom in

Kids will learn core skateboarding skills, improve balance, and gain confidence under expert supervision.

Participants must wear enclosed shoes, no Crocs or sandals, and complete Chiggy’s Skateboarding online safety waiver as part of registration.

Zoom out

The workshops reflect a growing focus on active, skills-based holiday programs that support both physical activity and confidence-building for young people.

What to look for next?

Spots are limited, and sessions are expected to fill quickly, so families are encouraged to secure bookings early.
