North Ringwood Playgroup is a not-for-profit organisation that was founded in 1954 and is about to celebrate its 50 year anniversary in 2024! We are one of the largest and longest running playgroups in Victoria and thus know a thing or two about having fun!
The committee meets every 6 weeks and discusses the operation of the playgroup including staffing, sessions available, toy updates, equipment maintenance, member numbers, fundraising, finances etc. We love to see new members join our committee who bring fresh and exciting new ideas and support to our playgroup.
Our playgroup cannot run without a President. They manage the staff, run committee meetings, liaise with Scouts (who own the hall) and communicate frequently with committee and members.
Our vice president supports the President with any tasks that are too big for one person.
Our treasurer plays an important role in our playgroup. They ensure our staff are paid, any bills are paid for and manage our finances.
Our secretary helps communicate important events, does regular facebook posts when special activities are planned and takes minutes for committee meetings.
Our enrolments officer is first point of call for any new family. They manage our emails, phone and booking system. If you need to get in touch with our enrolments officer please
Our grants and fundraising officer helps raise money for our playgroup. Any grant we receive or fundraiser we run allows us to update toys, buy new equipment and keep our fees as low as possible.
We provide tea and coffee during our sessions so it is great to have a purchasing officer who can grab small items for us when we run low on supplies.
Our website officer keeps our website up-to-date with important dates, term planners and information documents.
We love to have members on our committee who like to share their thoughts and ideas on how to make our playgroup even better.
ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING (AGM)
Every year in October we hold our AGM. This is were we hear reports from our president and treasurer regarding how NRPG has been tracking. We also look for new members to join our committee for the following year.
DONATIONS
We appreciate donations (good quality toys, supplies etc) or any time that you can give to support the running of our playgroup. We have had families build mud kitchens, organise and lay tanbark, repair our cubby house and donate coffee machine.
