St Columba Playgroup
We offer two groups (during term time):
PLAYGROUP - 9:30am to 11:30am Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays
MUSIC & PLAYGROUP - 9:30am to 11:30am on Wednesdays
Sessions are held at 480 Ti Rakau Drive, Botany
We provide a modern facility offering a great range of educational equipment (indoor and outdoor), catering to children who are 0-5 years of age. Playgroup is not just for the children - our aim is to encourage and equip parents to learn new skills and make new friends.
A different theme is covered each term to educate and stimulate your children. Sessions include free play, lesson time, music, craft and morning tea (please bring food and water for your child). Cost of each session is $5.00 per family and includes morning tea for the parents/care givers. Our Playgroup and Music & Playgroup have been set up in conjunction with the Ministry of Education Early Childhood Development Unit, aimed to provide social interaction for preschoolers, fun and safe activities that cover all recommended preschool learning areas, in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere.
Please check out the St Columba Playgroup Facebook page for upcoming activities, Tool Box Parenting Courses and School Holiday Sessions, or phone 274-4864 for more info.
We hope you join us soon!
