St Hilda's Playgroup is back! 0-5 Yrs, Tues Feb 4th 9.00-12.00 311 THE PARADE

Clive from Island Bay

We will restart our regular Tuesday morning playgroup starting on February 4th at 9.00 am. This is for pre-school children from 0 to 5yrs, with special emphasis on the 0-2 year olds.
We operate as a drop-in playgroup so you can come at whatever time suits your child. A great chance to meet other parents and caregivers over a coffee and some delicious nibbles. Depending on numbers we could have a music session around 10.30. We ask for a Koha to cover the refreshments, and hall operating expenses.
Note: our next SPACE course for new parents and their babies starts the following day 5th February.
Playgroup and SPACE meet in the hall at St Hilda's church, 311 the Parade

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
