The Stawell Neighbourhood House and Central Grampians Local Learning Employment Network (LLEN) January school holiday program kicked off at the Stawell Powerhouse in Sloane Street last week.

Today the program resumes with jewellery making for primary school children between the ages of six and 12 years.

For a cost of $5 young participants can make necklaces and bracelets between the hours of 1pm and 4pm. Bookings are essential.

Tomorrow a chill out session involving pool, table tennis and electronic gaming device Wii will be held for secondary school children between the ages of 12 and 18.

On Thursday primary school aged children can enjoy a chill out session of their own with access to table tennis, pool, Wii and Air Hockey between 1pm and 4pm.

Friday promises to be the pick of the week for secondary school aged children with an opportunity for them to design their own t-shirt.

Participants are advised to bring their own t-shirt - dark colour is best, as they will use computers to create their own design to laser print onto their t-shirt.

A little more than a stone throw away the Stawell YMCA Vacation Care has entered week two of its program at Stawell 502 Primary School.

Today no lunch is required for participants who head along for some cooking in the morning and cave painting in the afternoon.

Sticking with the creative theme tomorrow will involve recycled wind chimes and making a musical instrument.

The program turns up a notch on Thursday with participants painting an old t-shirt.

There will be a change of pace in the afternoon with access to electronics and a movie.

The holiday program will come to a close on Friday with a game day at the YMCA.

No lunch is required with children to enjoy a barbecue lunch along with gymnastics, swimming, netball, basketball and soccer.
