FREE play and stay sessions
Our family hubs provide a fun and welcoming space for children to play and learn. Through our free stay-and-play sessions, children can engage in crafts, sensory play, and enjoy spending time with others. These sessions are also a wonderful opportunity for parents and carers to meet other families and connect with like-minded individuals. It's truly a supportive environment, just like the experience of Emma and her little girl, Star.
"Getting messy with crafts and being outside is one of Star's favourite activities at her play session. It also gives me a chance to catch up with other mums who have become good friends".
