Please book in to secure a spot in this free programme. bookings@hetohu.org.nz

Have you been thinking about coming along to Playgroup but wondering how much work it is?

Good news, not much at all!

Our aim is to provide a safe supportive environment for children to play and adults to meet friends in our community. Many hands make light work and we try to keep it simple.

When you sign up to attend a session for the term (e.g. Tuesdays) you go on the roster, which means you’ll get 2-3 duties per ten week term where you do either ‘Kids morning tea’ or ‘Adults morning tea’.

🍏🍊🍌🥝🍍🍉

Kids morning tea involves bringing some fresh fruit and putting it out with other food that playgroup provides. Setting out the children’s plates, water, cups. Then tidying it up (but others help too).

Adults morning tea means bringing some milk from home and then preparing coffee and tea pots. And tidying it up. ☕️

We all chip in to set up activities for the children at the start and then pack up at the end. 🎨 🚗 🖍 🧸 🚂

If you need to leave early or arrive late that’s totally fine, everyone helps out as they can. We all have lives and naps to work around! 😴

Come along and check Playgroup out, first two sessions are free!

If you have any questions please email WadestownPlaygroup@gmail.com or ask the key contact at a session.
