Welcome to White Rock Play-Full

SUPPORTED - Ages 0-5 years. Playtime is a playgroup supported by Early Childhood Educators and funded through Communities for Children. The focus is on children and their families learning through play. Children are encouraged to explore and promote their development through a large range of play based learning experiences and activities. Each playgroup follows a routine where children are encouraged to grow their sense of belonging to the group and develop a sense of shared ownership with their peers through free play, a planned art/craft experience, shared healthy morning tea (provided), a group session where we all come together for singing, a short music session, group games and a story. Followed by a ‘goodbye song’ and a parachute game. Children and parents are encouraged to participate in all aspects of our playgroup. Community Food Pantry for registered families in attendance.
