Lexiko Club meets monthly on the third Friday of the month between 12:30 and 13:30, giving a consistent mid-day slot that fits school pick-up schedules or a quiet part of the week. The session length is one hour, long enough for a satisfying social catch-up and puzzle time without taking up the whole day.
This program is open to people aged 16 years and over and welcomes all ability levels, so it’s a good choice for parents who want to socialise with peers or keep their minds active in a supportive environment. The focus is on casual word play, crosswords and community connection rather than formal instruction.
The event is free and run by Earlwood Library as part of their community library events and programs. It’s a drop-in format so booking is generally not required, making it easy for busy parents to pop in when time allows.
Sessions are held at Earlwood Library and Knowledge Centre, located in Earlwood 2206, inside the local council’s library network. The library is a familiar community hub with clear signage and friendly staff to guide visitors to the event space.
Accessibility is a priority at the venue with accessible toilets and nearby parking mentioned by the library. Public transport and local streets provide easy access for parents dropping in during school hours or on the way to other errands.

This activity is aimed at adults and those aged 16 and over, so please arrange child care where needed; younger children are not the focus of this session. The tone is social rather than instructional, so it’s ideal for parents wanting a relaxed outing rather than a structured class.
The group is free to attend but space can vary, so arriving a little early helps secure a seat and join ongoing games. The session runs for one hour, making it easy to fit into a school day timetable or lunch break.
