Families across Hedland are invited to join in the fun as The World’s Biggest Play Day arrives in town — a vibrant community event dedicated to celebrating early childhood development and supporting local families.
Held during National Families Week, this free event puts the spotlight on the vital role of play in helping young children learn, grow, and thrive. The day will be filled with hands-on activities, educational resources, and opportunities for families to connect with local early years services.
The World’s Biggest Play Day is supported by a strong network of community organisations, including the JD Hardie Youth & Community Hub, the Child and Parent Centre South Hedland, and a number of other local partners committed to giving children the best possible start in life.
Parents, carers, and children can look forward to:
- Interactive play zones and games
- Arts and crafts
- Storytime sessions
- Information booths from local support services
- Opportunities to meet other families and early childhood professionals
The event is designed to be welcoming, inclusive, and enriching for children of all abilities and their caregivers. Quiet areas and support staff will be available to help create a positive experience for everyone attending.
Whether you’re a first-time parent, a seasoned caregiver, or simply looking for a fun day out with your little ones, The World’s Biggest Play Day is a chance to celebrate the power of play and the strength of community.
