Salisbury Communities for Children

Welcome

It’s exciting to see the results of many conversations with people living and working in Para Hills, Ingle Farm, Pooraka, Para Hills West and Salisbury East lead to some great new opportunities for families with young children. Many more families in our area now look forward to being able to take our toddlers to places where we know they will enjoy a great playtime and we can also have some stimulating conversations with other parents!

This website tells you about some of the things that are happening in our community you are encouraged to be part of through Salisbury Communities for Children. Communities for Children is an initiative of the Australian Government happening in 45 groups of suburbs throughout Australia. There are 5 of these in South Australia and we are one of them.

We started with First Steps Playtime 3 days per week at the Ingle Farm Salvation Army, then developed the FamilyZone Zone Hub at Ingle Farm Primary where most of our team is based and have recently opened FamilyZone Para Hills. As well as establishing these centres for young families we are working on a number of other exciting initiatives for children in our community you can find out about on this site.
