Im not built yet to sit still, take turns, be patient, stand in line or be quiet all of the time. I need motivation and adventure to engage the world with my whole body. Let me play; trust me I'm learning!
Playgroup can be one of the best ways for your child to develop social skills, learn about their world and make friends. It can also give you, the parent, caregiver or grandparent, the support and friendships you need in your parenting!
They are also a great way to get your little ones used to the process of coming to school and meeting friends that they may be coming to school with.
Our Playgroup is held every Tuesday morning from 9:15am-11:00am. All session are held in our hall (the De Porres Centre).
Playgroup is a great way for your child(ren) to learn about the world, make friends and develop social skills. Playgroup also gives mums, dads, grandparents and caregivers a chance to share ideas and experiences. Many long-term friendships begin at Playgroup.

"I get to be there when they lose their first tooth & place them in an envelope stamped with a tooth fairy, I get to put a bandaid on their grazed knee while they very bravely hold back the tears and I get to hear the most amazing & imaginative stories about their adventures over the weekend. I get to witness the pride they take in their achievements and I get to support them when they feel defeated. That's why I come to school." ~ Gabby Bates
