About Us

Billylidz began with a simple belief: children are capable of so much more than we often expect, and they show it when they’re trusted to lead. We wanted to create visits where children aren’t an audience but the heart of every moment, where curiosity sets the direction and every idea is welcome. That belief shapes every program we create, and each activity is designed to align with the Early Years Learning Framework (Belonging, Being and Becoming) and My Time, Our Place, so the fun on the day also supports the learning that happens every day. We’re a small, passionate team, and that’s deliberate. Every member receives specialised, focused training so each session is delivered with the same care and quality, and schools and centres can count on a consistent experience every time we visit. We arrive with everything we need, set up in whatever space you have, and shape each session around what your children care about, with every program designed for all ages, abilities and sensory needs from the start. Safety sits underneath it all, with current Working With Children Checks, public liability insurance and a risk assessment for every program, so you can relax and watch the children shine. Think big, Billylidz: big ideas, big opportunities, big outcomes.

FAQs

If you have any additional questions please contact us.

  • An incursion is when we bring the activity to you. We arrive with everything we need, set up in your space, and run a hands-on session where children lead the way. There’s no travel, no permission slips for excursions and no stress for your team.

  • Our programs are designed for all ages, abilities and sensory needs from the start, from early years through to teens. We adapt each activity to suit the group in front of us, so everyone can take part in their own way.

  • Most sessions run for 45 to 90 minutes, depending on the activity and group size. We can also offer longer sessions or full-day visits with multiple activities. Just let us know what suits your schedule.
