Playgroups

What is a playgroup?

In Wyndham there are many playgroup sessions for parents, carers and grandparents with babies and children aged 0 to school age.

At all playgroups, you stay with your child while they play, explore and socialise with other children.

At playgroup you can:

• Attend free or low-cost weekly sessions
• Spend time playing and learning with your child
• Meet other parents and carers
• Build friendships and local connections
• Grow your confidence and parenting skills
• Learn about local services and supports
