Join our free playgroups in South West Sydney

Our community playgroups create a safe and welcoming space for families from all backgrounds to come together, build friendships, and share experiences.

As part of our commitment to strengthening families and building community, our multicultural supported playgroups offer more than just play, they’re a place to belong.

Children enjoy play-based learning activities, while parents and carers get the chance to build confidence, gain practical parenting tips, and feel supported in a relaxed environment. Each session is led by a qualified team member who guides the group and ensures a supportive and inclusive atmosphere for everyone.  

Whether you’re new to the area, hoping to connect with other parents and carers, or simply looking for a fun and engaging activity to share with your child, you’re welcome here!

All our playgroups are free to attend!

Our baby playgroups welcome infants as young as a few weeks old.

Our toddler playgroups are designed for children aged 2.5 to 3.5 years old. 

Our preschool playgroups support children aged 3.5 to 6 years, helping them build the skills and confidence to prepare for school.

Each community playgroup session includes a mix of structured and free play, giving children the chance to explore, learn, and build confidence at their own pace. Children take part in songs, stories, creative and sensory play, and age-appropriate toddler activities. For parents and carers, it’s a relaxed and welcoming space to connect with others, share experiences, and access support. Our free playgroup sessions are informal and flexible, so there’s no pressure if your child prefers to observe or take things slowly. Each session is guided by a qualified team member who ensures everyone feels included and supported.

You don’t need much. Just bring what you’d usually pack for your child, such as snacks, a water bottle, and any essentials like nappies. Our infant playgroup and toddler sessions are designed to be easy and stress-free for families.
