Registered Drop-In Programs
Saanich Neighbourhood Place (SNP) offers a range of drop-in play times for little people and their grown-ups. These are fun opportunities for children and their adults to play together in a relaxed social setting, meet other folks in the community and maybe learn a new song or story too. Facilitated by SNP staff, students and volunteers, they are also a great way to learn more about other services available in Saanich and neighbouring communities. A range of sessions are offered at the Pearkes Recreation Centre, the SNP Child and Family Centre, and Broad View United.
There is no charge to attend any of our Drop-In Playgroups, and all groups are open to children up to three years of age and/or up to five years of age, and their grown-ups.
