Playgroup Tasmania acknowledges that we live, work and play on Aboriginal land, land of the palawa people of lutruwita (Tasmania). We pay our respects to the Tasmanian Aboriginal community, to elders past and present and to all those who continue caring for country, sharing stories and upholding rights.
First ever Tasmanian Child and Youth Wellbeing Strategy launched
"My son is shy around other loud children in his face, at these groups he was able to watch other kids and understand how to play along side them without seeming uncomfortable."
Parent Name
Early Years the key focus of child and youth wellbeing
“We welcome more and more attention on the early years. Do not forget the parents' role as their children's first teacher - our parents need more support to do this, not this role taken away and given to childcare workers and teachers.”

"My son is now a social butterfly and loves the company of others. I attribute that to attending playgroup each week from a young age until my return to work at 12 months."
