Little Nicholson Street Play Centre is fenced, with covered options for wet weather, an array of awesome toys, dress-up’s, a huge sandpit, fun outdoor play equipment, a fully-equipped painting studio, toilets, baby change facilities and even a tea and coffee kitchenette.

The perfect place for mother’s groups, friends meeting or someone looking to meet some other children & carers in the area!

How can we access the centre?

Any parent/carer from the local community with children aged 0-5 years can access the centre, on any weekday between 9am and 5pm – once they have purchased a membership or five trip pass. We also offer a Day Pass for those wanting to try out the centre or for a one-off playdate.

Open Times

LNSP currently operates as follows:

Monday to Friday 9am – 5pm
Wednesday 9am – 7pm (only during Daylight Saving)

The play centre is NOT open on public holidays. As the play centre is in the middle of a quiet residential area, it is important that we respect our neighbourhood and adhere to these opening hours.
