STJV Juniors is a playgroup where parents and carers get together with their young children on Wednesday mornings between 9.00am and 10.00am each week to connect, learn through play and most importantly, have fun.

Creative and unstructured learning through play is essential to the development of young children, helping them explore and understand their world.

Essentially, STJV Juniors is one of the first, and most important social networks for children and families to develop: physical, social, emotional, language and cognitive development and communication. The children engage in craft, indoor and outdoor play, sing songs, listen to stories and morning tea.

At playgroup, families can learn new ideas for playing at home, making new friends and share their experiences in a relaxed environment.
