Multiplay
41 Templeton St
09:30 – 11:30
A playgroup for CARMBA families for ages 0-5 run out of the ACT playgroup's playrooms during school terms. Parents, grandparents and other carers/helping hands looking after the kids are all welcome along with any siblings! Multiplay is the place to come to meet other families, and to practice getting out of the house. There is always a friendly face and support on the hard days - from unsettled newborns, the terrible twos, and more rambunctious preschoolers!  Multiplay is held in the Castle room in ACT Playgroups, first door on the right as you enter the building. There is a large heated indoor play space with activities and toys for all ages and a large fenced yard with a mud kitchen, sand pit, climbing structures and more. We would love to see some new faces - please contact us if you have any questions about attending or if there is anything we can do to support you.   Important notes: - Park in the carpark at Ellis street. ACT Playgroup entrance is closest entry to the car park (not the Cook shops or Koalas playgroup!) - Please remember to help tidy the space after. There is a stick vacuum for any crumbs, and spray and wipe under the sink. Lots of groups use this play space, please help us keep it tidy for the next group!

**Moved to Play Up at OPH due to rain** Playground Tour - South Jerrabomberra Town Park
South Jerrabomberra Town Park
10:00 – 12:00
Moved to Play Up at Old Parliament House due to rain   **Disclaimer - I am unsure how fenced this playground is as it is quite new. There may be fenced areas but be prepared for anything!** Come along to a stop on our playground tour of Canberra. We'll be exploring fenced playgrounds around the region, giving families the chance to discover new favourite playgrounds. We hope that by moving around each week we can visit playgrounds close to different families, making it easier to come along and join in when there is one near you. Parents, grandparents and other carers/helping hands looking after the kids are all welcome along with any siblings! Come along for a relaxed play, a chat, and a chance to connect with other families in our multiples community. Arrive anytime between 10am and 12pm, stay as long or as little as suits your day. Bring a picnic rug if you have littler multiples who aren't on the move yet - there will be shaded spots to set up under. Feel free to grab a coffee from a nearby cafe and enjoy getting out of the house together in a supportive, understanding space. We’d love to see both familiar and new faces along the way! If you have any questions or need support to attend, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with me (Josie on 0466 548 875). We hope to see you at a playground near you soon!
