Playgroup is back at Westfield Marion

*Thursday 2 July session cancelled - apologies for the inconvience.

Every Thursday, families with babies and toddlers are invited to join us at Westfield Marion for playgroup, delivered in partnership with Darlington Children’s Centre. Running just outside Aldi on level 1, the playgroup offers a fun, relaxed and welcoming space for little ones to play, explore and engage in activities, while parents and carers connect with others from the community!
Designed with busy families in mind, the playgroup makes it easier to access early learning experiences without the pressure of travelling to unfamiliar locations. Babies and toddlers can enjoy toys, books and interactive play, while adults are encouraged to relax, ask questions and chat with the friendly facilitators (why not grab a coffee from Skala right next door)!
The playgroup also supports parents and carers to help their children develop early communication skills through talking, reading and play, all in a casual and supportive environment.
Whether you’re new to playgroups or looking for an easy, accessible outing, our new playgroup brings a valuable community experience right into the centre. Westfield Marion and Darlington Children’s Centre are excited to welcome local families and connect with the community through this engaging new offering.
