There are many activities run by different agencies and organisations occurring at the Noranda Family Centre.  Ngala runs  Ngala Parenting and Play Time and  Consultations.  Ngala also has numerous books and videos on sleep and play which are available for purchase or hire. 

Ngala Parenting and Play Time is run at the Noranda Family Centre on Monday mornings between  09.30 and 11.30 am.  The Parenting and Play Time provides weekly opportunities for families to discuss and share their early parenting ideas and concerns, learn about child development and learn about other helpful resources in their community.  The Parenting and Play Time sessions are facilitated by trained professionals and all families are welcome.  Families are asked to bring a piece of fruit with them so that their children can enjoy a healthy snack in a social setting.  Where possible and at the request of adults attending Parenting and Play Time, guest speakers are invited to address the sessions
