Hands on fun at PHIVE to shape your kids’ first years

Families seeking free and educational activities for kids are in luck with a range of options on offer at PHIVE starting this week. 

From Messy Sensory Play, Go4Fun to Story Time, PHIVE has something for every local family to take part in.

City of Parramatta Lord Mayor Cr Pierre Esber said PHIVE is a beautiful place for families to come together and create lasting memories. 

“PHIVE is our very own ‘urban living room’ in the heart of Parramatta which provides educational opportunities for children to learn, play, and grow in a nurturing environment,” Cr Esber said.

“We all want our kids to get the best start in life and these sessions are an exciting way to get them out of the house, socialising with other young ones and learning all at the same time.

“I encourage parents to attend one of the sessions and get their little ones involved early.”

Messy Sensory Play provides a unique and immersive experience for babies to explore their senses and engage in hands-on activities. With various textures, colours, and materials, this program encourages creativity and imagination in a safe and stimulating environment.

Go4Fun offers many activities and resources to support your family’s journey towards a healthier lifestyle. From interactive sessions to educational workshops, the program is designed to make healthy living enjoyable and sustainable.

Story Time at PHIVE is a magical journey into the world of imagination and storytelling. Led by experienced storytellers, children will be captivated by enchanting tales, fostering a love for reading and expanding their vocabulary.
