Nature Playgroup at Perth City Farm
Our Perth City Farm Nature Playgroup runs every Saturday morning during the school term from 9-10am in the Perth City Farm gardens. It’s a great chance for little ones and their guardians to engage with nature, get creative and make new friends. We’re able to offer Nature Playgroup thanks in part to support from the Rotary Club of Subiaco.
This family playgroup is for children aged between 2 and 5 years old and an accompanying adult. Facilitated by Erin Pedretti, a qualified children’s educator who plans and delivers each session with unique, seasonally-inspired activities inspired by what’s happening at Perth City Farm. The guardians stay and participate in the session so that everyone gets to share in the experience of connecting with nature.
Kids Education Programs Helping children connect to nature is a big part of our purpose at Perth City Farm and we love nothing more than seeing young people discover and delight in the things they find at the Farm. We run a variety of education programs to support children in doing this including:
Creativity and connection inspired by the natural environment
