The C3 Hobart Playgroup
The Rivulet Cafe understands the importance of catering to families. This is where the C3 Hobart Playgroup comes in. Running from Monday to Wednesday mornings, the Playgroup program provides a dedicated space for young children (aged 0-5) and their caregivers to socialise and play. Located in a safe and secure playground adjacent to the cafe, the Playgroup offers both indoor and outdoor play areas. The C3 Kids rooms, filled with a variety of age-appropriate toys, provide ample space for toddlers and preschoolers to explore and have fun. The Playgroup is facilitated by experienced C3 Hobart mums, young adults, and volunteers passionate about supporting families in the community. Parents can enjoy a cup of coffee and conversation at the Rivulet Cafe while their children have a safe and stimulating play experience at the C3 Hobart Playgroup. This creates a win-win situation for everyone, fostering a sense of community and connection for families in South Hobart Tasmania.

The Rivulet Cafe goes beyond just offering delicious food and a relaxing atmosphere. They actively foster a sense of community by hosting a variety of events and gatherings throughout the year. These events can range from book clubs and art exhibitions to business meetings and social gatherings for local clubs and organisations.
