About
Playgroup WA has been supporting, servicing and establishing playgroups throughout Western Australia for over 50 years.
Playgroup WA (formerly called the Playgroup Association of Western Australia) was established in 1972 by volunteers who wanted to help support the growth of playgroups which were first opened in the late 1960’s.
Today, Playgroup WA is the peak body for approximately 1000 community, parent-led playgroup sessions, as well as the growing, professional playgroup sector.
Our vision is for children and families to thrive within their local communities. Our playgroups are for children aged 0 to 5 years and their parents or caregivers, providing a place to regularly meet whilst forming supportive relationships and playing. We deliver a range of playgroup models throughout Western Australia, designed to enable playgroup participation for all families and work with other community agencies to develop their playgroup capacity.
