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.

Alice Wallen

Playgroup Development Practitioner, North

Through her work in community services, Alice has been providing support and advocacy for vulnerable children and young people for more than 18 years.

She brings that experience to playgroups through her knowledge of child development, and her understanding of the value of connection and play within a safe and nurturing environment.

Alice enjoys the opportunities her role provides to work alongside families and support them to connect within their local communities.

"I love watching my child make new friends that they get excited to see every week."
