Early Years
At
Inala State School, Teaching and Learning in the Early Years focuses on every child
succeeding.
Playgroup
At Inala State School, we understand the importance of a child's early years and the enormous development that occurs before a child starts their formal schooling. We also understand the challenges of parenting and supporting development through these years.
Our playgroups create a safe and supported environment to meet other parents and learn more about games and activities that help grow happy healthy babies and toddlers.
Our playgroups are open to all families from our local community and they can access playgroup from 9-11 Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays each term.
