Every child deserves a nurturing and inclusive environment where they can learn, grow, and develop to their fullest potential. When it comes to children with disabilities, providing them with opportunities to interact, play, and socialise becomes even more crucial. A playgroup designed specifically for children with disabilities can be a powerful avenue for fostering their overall development, building friendships, and promoting a sense of belonging.
PlayConnect playgroups use a holistic approach, providing experiences that center around the child’s own physical and emotional wellbeing, building on experiences to help them feel secure, confident and capable in their learning environment. they are an early intervention strategy funded through the Australian Government Helping All Children With Autism Package and are free to eligible families. Children do not require a formal diagnosis or referral, you can bring the whole family including their siblings and there is one running right around the corner that our local community might not know exists.
