Aim / Mission Statement: 

Our group provides a safe place for parents and young children to meet on a regular basis. We aim to provide a range of experiences to foster children’s learning and development as well as a place for parents to get to know each other.

Playgroup guidelines:

  • Playgroup is run cooperatively, and each parent/ caregiver is responsible for the children they bring.
  • We are respectful of each other and help when needed. Everybody pitches in to ensure playgroup sessions run smoothly. 
  • Your input as a parent is valuable. Children learn best when adults take an interest in their learning and play. Please bring along your ideas for activities, we would love your contribution.
  • Positive behaviour management techniques are used at playgroup. 

Some examples of these are:

  • Praise positive behaviour
  • Supervise children and be available to offer support as needed
  • Support children to resolve conflict positively
  • Support children to express their feelings

 

Morning Tea: 

Playgroup provides tea and coffee. Please bring morning tea for your own child/ children and a drink bottle of water

 

All parents and caregivers at playgroup share responsibility for the safety and supervision of all children attending.
