Playgroup
Playgroup operates on Wednesdays during school terms, from 10am to 11:30am.
Ashburton Baptist's playgroup offers a range of indoor and outdoor activities for babies to kinder age children including painting, crafts, sand and water play, role-play, climbing, movement and singing.
What to Expect
Parents/carers are responsible for the supervision of their own children at all times.
Parents/carers bring morning tea for their own children.
Tea and coffee are provided for parents/carers to help themselves.
We generally have free play until about 11am, followed by morning tea for the children and then singing. This is always a fun way to finish.
As a volunteer-run group, we ask parents to assist with the packing up of the room.
Funding & Fees
Playgroup is managed by a committee of volunteers and is financed by parent fees.
For 2025 the fees are $110 per family per year (or $55 per semester). But don’t let this stop you from coming along.
This money is put towards the upgrade and maintenance of toys and equipment, supplies for craft activities, tea and coffee, special events and a contribution to the church to help cover utilities.
