Illawarra Playgroup for LGBTIQA+ parents and their children

We have a new Rainbow Families playgroup starting in the Illawarra!!! Its for LGBTIQA+ parents and carers and their children birth to six years and its free to attend!

Playgroup will run each week throughout the school term in a purpose-built space at the University of Wollongong. The Early Start team at the uni are supporting us to create our own playgroup where rainbow families can meet up regularly and play, get to know each other better, and support each other and our kids. As a bonus, playgroup participants will also have free access to the adjacent Early Start Discovery Space, an amazing innovative playspace, after playgroup each week.
