Bright Sparks Playgroup

Join us for a fun, friendly, relaxed morning every Wednesday during the school term, from 9:00-11:00am at Mt Gravatt Seventh-day Adventist Church, for children aged 1-5 years.

About Bright Sparks Playgroup

Bright Sparks is run on every Wednesday and Thursday from 9:00-11:00am during term time by one of BAC's qualified teachers, supported by volunteers from the Mt Gravatt Seventh-day Adventist Church.

Our playgroup is a great opportunity to meet new people, make friends, play and learn, and become part of a community.

Bright Sparks offers a mix of organised activities and free play, including:

  • playdough, small toys such as blocks and cars, and sensory tables to which contribute to the development of motor skills.
  • songs with movement, instruments and actions.
  • a story and themed craft activity.
  • morning tea (fruit and crackers will be provided at 10:30am, and hot drinks and biscuits will be available throughout for parents and caregivers).
  • a shared pack-up, which encourages responsibility and independence.

While we will have a teacher and volunteers on hand, the supervision, behaviour management and duty of care for each child remains with the attending parent or caregiver.

Age range: Our activities are aimed at children from 1-5 years of age. A baby mat will be available for children under the age of 1, but no focused activities.
