Swanson Playcentre

Our family have been involved with Swanson Playcentre for over 40 years and it feels like a second home to our children. The cooperative nature of this amazing community asset means that responsibility is shared and the children’s well-being is prioritised.

Swanson Playcentre has been my village for the last 8.5 years as I have had the privilege to journey with my children through their early childhood education. My children have made great friends and I have built friendships and a support network that will last a lifetime. Playcentre you are an amazing place.

Swanson Playcentre is an absolute gem - I can't speak highly enough of the qualities this centre brings to our lives. I have founded friendships and felt very welcome into the community as a direct result of playcentre.The learning, support and vibrancy of the centre is heartwarming - and did I mention we have an incredible amount of fun playing with our children!

We have just left Swanson Playcentre as our last child hits school and WOW we are going to miss this place. We've been with Playcentre for 9 years in total with the last 2 being at SwansonComing into the community just those 2 years ago, we found a welcoming extended whanau in this place. Swanson Playcentre has given not only my children but our whole family support and love over our time with them and I know we will always be enthusiastically welcomed back to visit.The environment is rich as an ECE. Your children learn and you learn. Your children are challenged, stimulated, encouraged to grown and so are you. The facilities are awesome, fantastic outdoor play with great open space.Definitely book in for a visit!

Would highly recommend Swanson PC to any family with young children. From the moment I started attending with my 2 boys I felt safe, included and supported my everyone within the tight-knit community. A massive plus is that the centre itself is super welcoming, it is clean and super spacious, not to mention the outdoor area is just amazing, surrounded by lots of trees, paddocks where horses can sometimes be seen, train tracks where a cargo train can be seen passing by most days. This centre just has so much to offer, our family loves it!

It is very well maintained and inviting play centre.I love the way they kept resources and made the place so meaningful n colorful.

This is a great place for young families. The resources are excellent and the space is beautiful, but what really sets Swanson Playcentre apart is the people. This bunch saved my sanity as I navigated parenting, and we had a lot of fun along the way.

Playcentre in general is an incredible community to be part of - it offers so many meaningful opportunities for adults, pre-schoolers and babies alike. And Swanson Playcentre is the epitome of this - the grounds, the people, the history and the culture there is amazing. It has become my family's 2nd home. In fact my youngest thinks it is his 1st home and is very upset if we drive past without going in.For those looking to hire it out as a party or events venue, it is ideal for family and child gatherings - packed full of play space both indoors and out and great rates to boot.

Swanson Playcentre has been a supportive & fabulous community for my family, you meet some really special people and you’re all on this bumpy ride of parenthood together! It's awesome to be involved and alongside my son for his early education, while I also am able to learn so much.

I highly recommend Swanson Playcentre, it's a early education centre where you learn alongside your children, creating memories, and friendships.
