Program Overview
The Roving Gyms program nurtures physical literacy, the love of movement, and provides an environment for families to connect.
Come and enjoy free play with a purpose. Enjoy equipment designed to help your child develop fundamental movement skills, the precursors for healthy living. When confident and competent in these skills, children can develop sport-specific and complex movement skills. These skills allow children to enjoy sports and physical activities that have been connected to healthier living.
