Our SEMBA Playgroup runs every fortnight during the school term and offers a relaxed, welcoming space for families with twins and multiples to connect, play, and support one another. With fantastic indoor and outdoor areas, little ones can explore a sandpit, climbing play equipment, and open play spaces designed for safe and active fun. Whether your children are crawling, cruising, or climbing, there’s something for everyone. SEMBA will provide light refreshments for parents and children — but be quick, because the fruit always disappears fast! 🍎🍌 This playgroup is a safe, judgement-free space where you’re welcome to arrive when you can and leave when you must. There’s no pressure, no expectations — just community. And if you ever need an extra pair of hands, there’s always someone nearby ready to help, because that’s what SEMBA families do best. Perfect for building friendships, sharing experiences, and letting the kids play while parents connect. Always refer to the WhatsApp Playgroup channel to see if it's on that week :) Tentative dates are as follows: Feb 6, 20 Mar 6, 20 May 1, 15, 29 Jun 12, 26 Jul 24 Aug 7, 21 Sep 4, 18 Oct 16, 30 Nov 13, 27 Dec 11

We know that learning you're expecting multiples can feel overwhelming, daunting, or completely surreal. That's exactly why we created this space to chat. The SEMBA Committee warmly invites all members expecting twins or triplets to join us for an informal, supportive information evening. What to expect: A Judgment-Free Space: All questions are welcome! Whether it’s a practical worry keeping you up at night or the wildest "what if" scenario that has crossed your mind, please ask. Real Lived Experience: There is no need to navigate this alone. Our committee members have likely thought it, worried about it, or experienced it firsthand. Community Connection: Meet other expectant local parents who are on the exact same timeline as you. Event Details: 💻 Online via Zoom. 🎟️ Log-in details will be automatically emailed to you as soon as you register your ticket.
