Playgroup caters for children from birth to school age, creating a space where parents and children can come together every week to encourage a positive environment to learn, explore, grow and nurture children’s talents.
Hindmarsh Shire Council is proud to provide access to community playgroups in each of our four major towns. Everyone is welcome to attend any of the community playgroup sessions.
A supported playgroup has a professional facilitator and sessions include play for children as well as parenting strategies for families from the smalltalk program. Information and support is provided to families in a setting that allows their children to play and interact with other children. These playgroups are facilitated by Hindmarsh Shire Council at no cost to families, however eligibility criteria applies (follow booking link for more information).
