WeePlay Wednesday - A play morning for kids and their grown ups.
COVID-19 Update October 2020: Due to shared resources restrictions and social distancing requirements, WeePlay Wednesday is currently postponed until further notice. Due to strict cleaning protocol under our business COVID safe plan, staff are required to clean each shared resource between every child. While this is possible in a small class environment, it is not possible in a larger group setting such as WeePlay. We have loved having all our WeePlay Wednesday students join us over the years, and we are very much looking forward to the day we are able to offer this service again. As a small family business, the disruption of COVID-19 has made for a very bumpy 2020. We appreciate the support our local community has shown by enrolling in our wonderful classes and shopping in our little store. With this support we hope to bring back fantastic community services such as WeePlay Wednesday as soon as we can. |

We would love for you and your little ones to join us for our casual morning session, WeePlay Wednesday. Designed for families with children under school age, WeePlay Wednesday is a fun, educational, sensory, creative, and explorative play session. Similar to a traditional playgroup, but with a Flying Fox Studios creative twist. Our weekly WeePlay Wednesday session is scheduled from 10am to 11:30am each Wednesday morning during our term (week 2 to 9 of the regular state school term), and is facilitated by our wonderful educators Marnie, Christine, Justin and Marianne. Each week our theme will change, and our educators will encourage children and adults to participate together in fun experiences. Sessions are drop in, low cost, and use some of our fantastic non consumable resources, such as blocks, sand, water play, parachute play, ice, puppets and more. WeePlay Wednesday Tips:
Why have we created this session? We believe that strong, supportive, and creative communities make an ideal village in which to raise our kids. We also know how crucial social and unstructured play is in the cognitive development of a child.
Over the many years we have been working in the area of specialised extracurricular children's activities, our society has changed significantly. With the increasing availability of handheld technology, and screen entertainment, in our extremely busy lives it can be hard to stop and just play. We have been observers to a change in the way adults and very young children play together, and would like to offer an additional opportunity for a dedicated play time together.
What age is WeePlay Wednesday best suited for? WeePlay Wednesday is designed for babies, toddlers, preschoolers and their grown ups. Differentiated age appropriate activity options will be available for different stages.
Can I book in advance? No, this activity is designed as both casual and drop drop in. For safety and comfort reasons, we do have a cap on the number of children who can attend each week, particularly in wet weather when our outdoor space is closed.
Do you offer this session any other day?
Sorry, no. WeePlay Wednesday is a session we have chosen to include at our studio as our response to a need we see within our local area. This session is subsidised each and every week through funds from our small children's creative shop, as well as our core business of creative extracurricular children's education. Our teachers are professional educators, are not volunteers, and as such one session a week is all our funds allow for. By supporting our children's classes and creative store shopping small and local really does make a difference!
I am a family daycarer/ nanny, can I also attend?
We welcome carer's to come along and enjoy our WeePlay Wednesday sessions. If bringing several children along you will need to make sure all children are under your direct supervision and in your immediate eyesight at all times.
