Do you need to be a member of the church to join or attend?

No, you don't need to be a church member. It's affiliated with the Playgroups Association of Australia, and for insurance purposes if you decided to stay after three visits you need to get a Playgroups Association membership ($28 for the year) which entitles you to other benefits like using the association's toy libraries.

With the venue being a church with a great established kids program anyway, they have a cool playground and lovely facilities.

I'm probably going next week for the first time if anyone else is keen to join me - we can sit and be new together!

Typical... the church is a stones throw from my but I have just put little one into day care on a Monday and Thursday...

I could come on my own for the company but would slightly defeat the object of finding play pals for baby...

Are there any playgroups Tue, Wed or Fri...

Many thanks

Julie

The playgroup australia membership is only required if you decided to stay on past your third visit, so you can go along 3 times first and see if you like it.

Hello again, Tuesday might be a problem, something has cropped up I can't get out of, next time I'll be there.

We are off to Chipmunks today my eldest is going to a birthday party there... twice in a week might be more than I can handle anyhow.....lol

Is anyone else going to go on Tuesday to the playgroup. I will be waiting for a delivery so hopefully it will come early and I can wander on down. Hope to see some of you there on Tuesday.

Hi there,

I am the mum of 2 boys also. (Just like you Julie). My boys are 3.5 (Patrick) and 19months (Lincoln).

I'd love to meet other mums with children of similiar ages as well. (My eldest is at Kindy though on Wednesday and Friday)

We are living at Murrumba Downs at the moment but moved from Eatons Hill.

I'm going to a new Playgroup in Murrumba Downs tmro but would also like to know more about the Baptist Church Playgroup on a Tuesday.

Where in Bridgeman Downs is it?

Otherwise, maybe we can catch up somewhere else.......

Hi girls,
Little Miss Ashley and I will be at the Christian City Church playgroup tomorrow (Thurs 9 Feb) for the first time. Starts at 9:30am and it's just opposite Bunnings at Carseldine.

I'll be wearing a black t-shirt and khaki-green cargo pants, and I have a black Beema Q 3wheeler pram with orange piping, so come up and say Hi if you can make it too. If you can't make it, I'll post an update on what it was like.

Hi

I've just found this thread where a couple of you mentioned going to the Christian City Church or Bridgeman Downs Baptist Church playgroups on either a Tuesday or Thursday. Has anyone gone to these yet and if so, what did you think of them? I live in the area and am keen to take my daughter along this week because she needs some more outside stimulation! I just wanted to see what you thought of it - did you and the kids enjoy it?

Also, can you just turn up to these or do you need to book in?

Thanks,
Octobermum
