EIMEAR BEATTIE
Irish families in Perth is a voluntary non profit organisation with over 16,000 members on our social media group. We provide Irish emigrants with advice on how to best assimilate into the Western Australian culture and lifestyle. We communicate with our subscribers through social media where topics such as long lost relatives, housing, jobs and social events are covered. It is a vibrant active forum that provides a wealth of knowledge to young families and singles emigrating to Western Australia.
Our playgroup meetup is a purpose-built playgroup centre which has undergone recent refurbishment. It has a bright indoor area and a small kitchen complete with small fridge, microwave, tea and coffee making facilities. Outdoors, there is a covered playground attaching to the building and the outdoor area is fenced with a locked gate ensuring the safety of our little ones. It also has a large selection of indoor and outdoor toys ensuring that all parents and kids receive a warm reception. We have a number of vacancies for our Wednesday meet-ups 9-11am and a few on Monday Playgroups for any families interested in joining.
IFIP contributes to a cohesive Irish Community by working together with many of the wonderful groups in Perth that support Irish culture and heritage.
We offer 2 free trials for you and your little ones to come and play prior to joining. We cater for children from 6wks to 5yrs. Please contact Sorcha McAndrew for Wednesday group queries and Lynsey Staunton for Mondays. Based at Padbury Playgroup on Caley Road.
IFIP aims to:
New members are always welcome.
• Coordinate Irish family events including twice weekly playgroup. • Develop Irish Culture & heritage. • Help Irish people with any problems that might arise and provide a link to Australian and Irish support services.
