Monthly GCMBA playgroup! This playgroup is on the 3rd Thursday of every month, run by our wonderful volunteers Leanne and Neerissa. It is focused on our younger children, with a smaller setup and toys, as it’s all about parents and caregivers connecting with each other. Our under 1’s focused playgroup is a great opportunity to meet some fellow twin (& HOM) families in a safe environment.  Given this venue has lots of space, we are happy to welcome older siblings and children along. We have a dedicated outdoor fully fenced playground, indoor air conditioned hall with kitchen facilities and toilets.  Tea and coffee facilities are provided! Feel free to bring along some food to share.  Location: Nerang Uniting Church, 5 Nerang River Drive, Nerang Time: 9:30 to 11:30am - come along anytime in that period.  Free for financial members, a gold coin donation requested from non-members for insurance purposes.
