Wadestown Playgroup re-opens for Term 1 on Tuesday 22 January!

Sally Latham from Wadestown Playgroup

New members welcome!

If you are a parent or caregiver for children under 5, Wadestown Playgroup may be for you!

Playgroup provides unstructured play in a safe, secure environment and is an excellent forum for meeting others in the community. We have a wide range of toys and equipment (both indoor and outdoor) and activities including painting, craft, playdough and sandpit. We also arrange for regular educational visits by children’s entertainers such as the travelling farm or fire engine.

We are a parent run organisation. Each child attending must have a parent or caregiver stay with them, interacting in the play activities with their child. Playgroup relies on the parents and caregivers to run smoothly and all members are asked to contribute, which makes for a great atmosphere. We operate a roster system for duties on sessions and we also have a Management Committee of volunteers.

We have places for new members available on some days, email us to confirm: wadestownplaygroup@gmail.com

Please come along to check it out, just ask for the 'key contact person' and they can show you around, give you an enrolment form (or download one from this site) etc. Feel free to try out different days of the week.

What's your favourite tomato recipe?

Mei Leng Wong Reporter from NZ Gardener & Get Growing

Kia ora neighbours. We know your tomato plants are still growing, but we're looking ahead to the harvest already! If you've got a family recipe for tomatoes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine to share with our readers. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our February 2025 issue.
