A children’s performing arts school is expanding its holiday program to Mosman, offering musical theatre activities designed to build confidence and creativity.
Background and Program Overview
Creative Starz Academy, a performing arts organisation for children, is expanding its musical theatre holiday camps to Mosman this winter. The academy began in Willoughby, later extending to Manly Vale, and is now introducing its seasonal programs to both Mosman and Beacon Hill. Previous camps have featured musical productions such as “Annie,” “Mary Poppins,” and “The Wizard of Oz.”
The academy also runs weekly performing arts classes for children aged 4 to 11.
Winter Camps and Locations
This year’s winter school holiday camps will run across four Sydney suburbs, with the Mosman camp taking place at St Luke’s Anglican Church on Heydon Street from Monday, 7 July to Friday, 11 July 2025.
The Beacon Hill camp will be held at Beacon Hill Public School from Monday, 14 July to Friday, 18 July 2025.
Each program spans five days and culminates in a mini-musical performance, with Mosman students working on “Matilda.” Holiday camp enrolments are open to children aged 6 to 13, with a program cost of $460.
Daily Activities and Schedule
The camps are scheduled from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. each day, with drop-off available from 8:00 a.m. and pick-up until 5:30 p.m. (except on the final day, which ends at 4:00 p.m.).
Children participate in singing, dancing, and acting in the mornings, while afternoon sessions focus on rehearsals, peer performances, and group activities aimed at building teamwork and problem-solving skills. A final showcase for friends and family is held at the end of the week.
Program Philosophy and Educational Goals
Creative Starz Academy does not position itself as a school of excellence but rather promotes inclusive participation for children of all skill levels.
The program is designed to support self-expression, independent thinking, and the development of communication skills. Its philosophy centres on nurturing creativity and fostering self-esteem in a structured but supportive environment.
Future Sessions and Ongoing Expansion
The academy has also confirmed additional holiday programs scheduled for September and October 2025. Details for these upcoming sessions are available on request. With the launch in Mosman and Beacon Hill, Creative Starz continues its growth across Sydney’s northern suburbs.
