Playgroups are relaxed and friendly play sessions for children and their special adults. Classes are run by run by an experienced playgroup leader. English is the medium of instruction.

- Outdoor play – ride on toys, slides, climbing, balancing, sliding and bouncing
- Art and craft – painting and sticking
- Messy play – sensory activities including play dough, water play, goop, slime, mud and sand
- Quiet play – Puzzles and toys, home corner, books
