Welcome to Paradise Playgroup

Come along for a fun, friendly and relaxed morning together. Paradise Playgroup is at Pacific Paradise State School based within the Prep area. It is a great place to make new friends (for our kids and grown-ups), play, learn new things and become part of our school community. Our mornings are led by one of the School Chaplain, Maneena Roberts, and supported by a parent committee. We have a mix of organised activities and free play for the first hour. It is then story time whilst the children have their morning snack. This is followed by singing, music or movement. Paradise Playgroup runs each Friday from 9am to 10:30am Weeks 1 - 10 during school terms. We ask for a gold coin donation to support future activities. All are welcome.
