Eastland Shopping Centre: Eye Trend Kids Workshop

Thursday 9 April 2026 10:00am – 4:30pm
Eastland Shopping Centre Ringwood
A fun and interactive workshop exploring visual skills for kids these school holidays!

Eye Trend’s Kids’ Vision Workshop

Does your child squint at the board? Lose their place while reading? Vision issues are often invisible – and more common than you’d think.

Join Eye Trend these school holidays for a hands-on workshop where kids test their own visual skills through fun, interactive activities. We go way beyond the standard eye chart – exploring how eyes focus, work as a team, and power everything from reading to sport.

Parents will walk away with real insight into how vision affects learning, and practical tips to support their child’s visual development at every stage.

Spots fill fast – grab yours now!

Location: Level 1 Eastland Shopping Centre outside Baby Bunting

Dates: 9th – 11th April (Thursday – Saturday)

Time: 10:00 am – 4:30 pm

Cost: Free (registration required)

What Your Child Will Discover

Through engaging, hands-on activities, kids will explore and test key visual skills:

● Visual Acuity: Clear vision at different distances

● Focusing Skills: Shifting smoothly between near and far objects

● Eye Teaming: How well both eyes work together

● Tracking: Following moving objects with ease

● Hand-Eye Coordination: Connecting vision with movement

● Visual Processing: Recognising shapes, symbols and colors

Why This Matters

As school demands grow, undetected vision problems can quietly hold kids back –

causing frustration, fatigue, and loss of confidence. Early identification can make a

dramatic difference to learning and self-esteem.

This workshop makes vision testing genuinely fun – and gives families the knowledge to act early.

Limited spots available. Register now – it’s free!
