Learn, Develop, Grow!
About Us
Taylors Lane Playgroup Rowville offers children a safe, stimulating play environment to try new activities, have fun and meet other children. Playgroup offers parents and caregivers a special time to play with their children and the opportunity to make new friends with whom they can share ideas, information, joys and problems.
Why join our playgroup?
We cater for children up to and including five years of age and come under the auspices of the Maternal and Child Health section of the City of Knox. We are a Parent-run Centre, which means that parents are responsible for the management of the Playgroup and the day to day running of the sessions. Direction and management for the Playgroup is provided by the Taylors Lane Playgroup Committee, composed of parents who volunteer their time.
New members are encouraged to consider themselves for a position on the Committee, where they can learn about the operation of playgroups and also meet and establish friendships with other parents/caregivers that use our centre.
