Welcome to Samford & Districts Playgroup

The wonderful RSL garden venue has been allowing families to meet since 1974. Offering both indoor and outdoor play, the playgroup is a community playgroup that hosts multiple weekly sessions, as well as special sessions and events. All sessions welcome children 0-5, however Wednesday sessions are run by two baby mums and are extra baby friendly! $45 per family per term for unlimited play (and other benefits) or $10 per session for casual attendance. For casual attendance, please RSVP in advance so that one of our friendly volunteers knows to expect you. Please bring a snack, hat and water bottle.
