About Wee Care Playgroup

Wee Care Playgroup is affiliated with Play Matters Australia. Our primary objective is to provide an educational, recreational and social playgroup in a discrimination free environment.

We focus on meeting the needs of families, caregivers and children within our community whilst being responsive to their changing needs.

Aim of Playgroup

We aim to provide you and your children with a safe, friendly and stimulating environment.
Together we will provide a balance between structured and unstructured, child initiated and adult supported experiences for you and your children.
We provide a range of equipment both indoor and outdoor.

Wee Care staff encourage families to contribute any ideas they have for playgroup and work together with the Wee Care team to help implement these ideas.

When is Playgroup on?

Playgroup is on every Thursday from 9.30am to 11.30am excluding school holidays. If it is canceled for any reason a post is put on Althea Projects Facebook page.

Your First Day at Playgroup

On your first day at playgroup you will need to fill out a playgroup enrolment form. Once this is done it is time for the fun!

Make sure you get involved, sit down, talk to, and play with the children. Some children may cling to their parents for the first few playgroup sessions and that’s ok.

Let your children choose what they want to participate in and encourage them to go to an activity table and get busy.
