Playgroup on Ice is a preschool program for children aged 3-6 years. We use a variety of games and songs and free play to encourage children to feel comfortable on the ice while building strength and balance.

Our Playgroup program runs Wednesday and Friday mornings from 10.00-11.00 am.

Coaches spend the first part of the session taking turns with the children individually to assist their progress in skating independently. Later in the session, the children are encouraged to participate in fun group games and activities to develop balance, muscle strength and  confidence on the ice. Games are planned that are suitable for the level of the group and as the group advances, small lesson times will be introduced.

Children will be fitted with single blade skates that are appropriate for their foot size.

While parents are not required to enter the ice, they are welcome to join the session if their child requires their support. Alternatively, parents may also like to try our Coffee Club program during their children’s Playgroup session, a program for beginner adults that runs alongside Playgroup. Our Cutting Edge Cafe is open for hot coffees to keep you warm while you watch on.
