Holiday Camp - Lavington Playgroup - April 2023

Strong Start Playgroups offer your child an opportunity to play and socialize while in a safe and secure environment. Our structured playgroups are curated to support your child's physical, cognitive, language, social, and emotional growth. 

Strong Start children have confidence, curiosity, and experience with structured play, making them school-ready and easing the transition from playgroup to preschool.

Children aged 6M - 3Y must attend with a caregiver (parent, grandparent, aunt, nanny, etc).
