North Ryde Games is now in its 19th year and has seen over 2000 graduates over that time. It is a holiday program for students K-6 held at North Ryde Public School and St John’s North Ryde. This year it is running from Monday 6th July to Friday 10th July 9am-3pm, with a Sunday celebration on 12th July 9am-2pm. Students participate in positive, life affirming lessons in a peer learning environment. The program is bible based and students from all faith backgrouds are welcome. In 2026 the K-6 program is capped at 200 children, and registration closes when full, so register early to avoid disappointment. Registration cost includes Cap, T-Shirt, morning tea and all program costs, including base camp discovery kits. We may have the capacity to support families with the registration cost – please email a request to nrg@northrydeanglican.org.au. All 18+ leaders have completed WWCC and a safe ministry training program.
Another 2026 change is that Parents (and siblings) are welcome to attend our daily afternoon teaching session at 2:20pm in the playground at St John’s church with seating available (weather permitting). Children love following along with our drama team – and you can meet our 2026 cast. The program includes singing, dancing, interviews, memory verses – an awesome experience before close at 3pm sharp with parent pickup.
New in 2026! A new daily component of NRG is Basecamp Discovery running everyday 9:20-10:40 at North Ryde Public School. Each day K-6 students will engage in a science related project, and build a kit which is yours to keep. These projects alone are worth well over $100 in shops. You can check out the basecamp program work book or see the build instructions of the projects. Basecamp discovery is co-ordinated by John Chappell – a secondary trained science teacher (Physics & Chemistry) who also leads the ministry team at St John’s.
