Welcome to Event: Pop-Up Playgroup for Children of All Abilities - Acacia Ridge

Come along for a morning of relaxed play and fun! We will have a variety of sensory play activities, suitable for children of all abilities, from babies to 8-year-olds. Enjoy playing with sand, coloured rice, playdough, building toys, plus songs, a story and bubbles too. Please bring sun protection, morning tea and your water bottle. The outside play area is fenced. If it's raining, activities will be held inside. This event is especially for children who have diverse or additional needs, disability, or a developmental concern, and their family and friends. Please follow the signs to the Acacia Ridge Early Years Centre (not the kindergarten or day care centre next door). If you need assistance, please phone 0457 77 77 01.
