We have had another wonderful volunteer, Hannah come forward and offer to put some more structure to our playgroup. As of next week the playgroup will include free play, craft activity, singing and movement session and shared morning tea for the children. Please bring some food (e.g. piece of fruit) to contribute to the morning tea.
Another volunteer, Emma will also continue to attend the group. Emma speaks Mandarin and English, and she is available to assist any Mandarin speaking grandparents who would like to bring their grandchildren to the group.
The playgroup runs on Wednesday mornings from 10am - 11.30am. Churton Park Community Centre, 75 Lakewood Ave. Gold coin contribution appreciated.
Some people's rates bills have gone up a lot because the value of their property also went up.
How did you feel about your bill?
