Playgroup

“The aim of Steiner Playgroups is to develop a sanctuary of safe play for children and an oasis of peace and friendship for parents. The child needs to experience and live in an environment where goodness is personified – where adults can carry the child with a kind of reverence.” ~ Billington (2001)

Playgroup at Little Yarra is a program for young children, which introduces them to being in a group and working with a morning rhythm similar to kindergarten, all with the support of their parent being present.

We prepare our morning tea, sing songs, do craft, tell stories along with time for indoor and outdoor play. The program is ideally targeted at the 2 – 3 year old age group but is open to other ages attending, if places are available.

Playgroup days and hours

Playgroup sessions are on Monday or Wednesday mornings from 9:00am to 11:00am in the Preschool.
