Playgroup In The Park

The Canterbury Child and Family Interagency invite local parents with pre-school aged children to attend the Playgroup in the Park on Thursday 16th February at Wiley Park, near the play equipment at Edge St from 10am to 1pm.

Play is not only a fun and special part of childhood, it is also important for children's learning and healthy development. There will be plenty of fun activities and games to involve young children and their parents or carers on the day. This will be an opportunity to get out of the house, enjoy some play time, and meet other families and workers from local children's services.

This is a FREE event. Morning tea and lunch will also be available at no cost. For more information, please call Wendi on 9759 4061.
