About Us
Playgroup NSW Inc. is a community based not-for-profit organisation. We promote our programs and services to support playgroups across NSW, increase participation from families in community and specialised playgroups, and raise the overall profile of playgroups.
Achieving these outcomes involves creating and sharing promotional materials through media, including:
Print Materials (newsletters, magazines, posters, brochures, booklets, displays)
Digital Media (websites, social media, email communications, online advertising)
Media Publications (newspaper articles and advertising)
High Quality photographs and videos depicting children, parents and carers attending Playgroup are integral to ensuring these promotional materials have the greatest impact.

Use by Playgroup NSW for promotional and communication purposes.
