Playgroup

Join us on Wednesday 5 February 2025

Welcome

We are excited to welcome children and families to our Playgroup, at McAuley Community School.  Our focus is Early Learning with age-appropriate investigative play and community connection. Our Playgroup is called Pathways Playgroup.

We also participate in the Paint the Town REaD program to encourage children to engage with books in the first five years, so they are ready to learn at school. Did you know books can be borrowed each week to read at home?

We offer play and learning experiences for birth to school-age children. Feedback from families is they love the play station options with the level of engagement determined by the child.

Looking forward to welcoming families from our local community.

Join us every Wednesday in the school term from 9:00 am to 10:30 am.
