Playgroup is for families with children aged up to five. It’s a chance to make new friends, play and join in fun activities.
Whitford Family Centre hosts two playgroup sessions every Monday to Friday throughout the school term. You can attend from 9-11am or 11.15am-1.15pm.

Everyone helps out at Playgroup and parents use a roster system to organise who’ll prepare fruit for the children, clean up or run activities like painting, crafts or reading stories.
Your children will also get to enjoy the sandpit, swings and slide in the undercover outdoor play area.

What people are saying about our Playgroup...
-
“After trialling a couple of small Playgroup’s in my local area a few years back, I came across Whitfords family playgroup and felt comfortable here straight away. It was the perfect atmosphere to bring my only child who was 1 at the time, so she could start building some social skills with other kids around her age. The staff at Whitfords family centre are helpful and friendly, there’s a huge range of different activities and outdoor toys to play with and I have made some really great friends here myself! My daughter is now nearly 4 and still loves it here and although she’s moving onto Kindy next year, I’ll definitely be staying on to put my 9 month old son through Whitfords family playgroup until he’s ready for Kindy too! ” – Parent
