Making a positive difference
Integricare runs two Supported Playgroup Projects one in the
St George region and the other in Northern Sydney. Both services
are funded through the NSW Family and Community Services
Department. Supported Playgroups provide an opportunity for
parents to share experiences of parenting and for children to
socialise, play and learn in a structured and positive environment.
Supported Playgroups provide a support network for parents and
opportunities for parents to learn new parenting skills they may
otherwise not acquire. For children, Supported Playgroups create
opportunities for age-appropriate learning experiences and
activities that help them become ‘ready for school’.
