Our aim is to help families make the best of the early years. We offer playgroups where children can learn and grow as well as lots of programs to help your child’s development. The playgroups for all ages up to 4 years including Little Wrigglers for babies up to 12 months, Toddler Time for children 1-2 years and universal playgroups for 0–4-years. Our transition to Kindy playgroup – Little Learners is offered to families who will be attending our host or associated schools the following year.  There are also targeted playgroups facilitated by other services including 54 Reasons and Communicare’s Settle in Playgroup for newly arrived migrants on Humanitarian Visas, First Steps Playgroup and My Time dads Coffee Group facilitated by the Autism Association of WA.  Please contact the Centre for more information about these playgroups.
