Hi everyone
Our lovely friend and guest speaker Talia has planned a walk for baby-wearing week. Go along and join her for some fresh air if you can :)

Mōrena! We are looking forward to welcoming some new families to our group today. Just letting you know, Apple Maps is sending people to a dead-end street, please use Google Maps to navigate to Koutu Playcentre :)

A big THANK YOU to the Red Cross for teaching our second term group about infant first aid 🩺✨

Young Mr M is checking these mannequins for responsiveness! 🥰

Hi everyone! There is a small detour on the way to Koutu Playcentre for SPACE this week (and possibly next week). You can get to the venue via this detour, or you can go via Kawaha Point Road, then Koutu Road.
Beware, Apple Maps tends to send people to a dead end - Google maps is more reliable

❗️UPDATE: ❗️

Please expect some delays during peak travel times over the next 10 days.

👉 If possible, use alternative routes at busy times.

The work involves connecting a private subdivision to Council’s three water services. This is a complex process due to the depth of the existing services and the high water table.

Thank you for your patience and understanding. 🙏
