All children deserve the best possible start with regard to learning and developing life skills. Connect Five supports isolated families with young children in their learning and development prior to starting school, particularly those children aged 0 to 5 years who do not have access to other Early Childhood Services such as Pre-school and Childcare.
Connect Five Children's Services run three-hour Mobile Play Sessions (play groups) commencing from 9am or 9.30am for children aged 0-6 years throughout the Warrumbungle, Coonamble, Gilgandra and Walgett Shires during school terms. Play sessions are run by dedicated Educators, with sessions held at local preschools, school grounds, church halls, community halls, and community ovals.
