Welcome to Mini Champions Playgroup (Churchill School Community Playgroup)

Come along for a fun, friendly and relaxed morning together. At our playgroup we have a mix of organised activities and free play. It's a great place to make new friends while we play and learn new things. Our children range from birth to 5 years and are part of Churchill State School which holds a great sense of family and community connection. Playgroup is facilitated by a Cert 111 qualified teachers aide who incorporates weekly activities including story time, craft, singing and dancing, fine and gross motor skills, as well as school readiness activities for the older children and not forgetting our all important free play. Covid safe tea and coffee are provided but please bring along your own morning tea as we are unable to share at this time. Don't forget your hat and water bottle. We meet every Tuesday morning in the school hall from 9am-11am during the school term. New families are always welcome and being a member of the school is NOT a requirement. We would love to meet you.
