Eleven local businesses ended up contributing to the inaugural Amazing Race on Thursday, and about 25 kids took to the streets, says Singleton Council’s Loren Arnot.
The winning team were youngsters Megan Tanner and Grace Russel who were accompanied by their grandmothers.
The Singleton Sings workshop was ran by Dan Stranger from the Singleton Youth Centre and Emmie Hallett the founder and creative facilitator at Wild Learning in Cessnock.
“The workshop is a creative and fun way to encourage children and parents to get off the screen devices and get creative and active these holidays,” says Emmie Hallet.
The day began with a vocal and dance workshop from midday onwards until 2pm followed by a fun disco break where parents and children boogied out under the disco lights to fresh tunes.
After some food, drink and a boogie the children warmed up once again to perform their cover of Happy by Pharrell Williams for several cameras.
Sisters Skyla (four) and Isabella (seven) Shirtcliffe who both attend Singleton Heights Public School claim that the best part of the day was the disco.
“The dance off has been fun because I got to make my own move called the silly swimmer,” says Isabella.
