📣 GOOD NEWS 📣

Our shed has finally been approved. We repeat OUR SHED HAS BEEN APPROVED! 🙌
The process of getting shire approval to install a shed was longer and more tedious than we expected. We had been working behind scenes to come up with a Plan B incase our application was denied but we finally got the result we needed! A shed means our playgroup can store a large range of outdoor equipment for children to enjoy - plus we can stop lugging entire car loads of toys back and forth each week. The Robertson family can also have their garage back since we can unpack the second half of our last toy order.

We’ve overheard some side comments about families missing the outdoor toys we used to operate with and we greatly appreciate everyone’s patience in this matter. We have a list of amazing equipment to still purchase, but were not able to order it until we had shed approval. No shed would have equaled no big toys. Soft play, water walls, funnels, water tables, new sensory trays, sand toys, and imaginative play toys are all on the list for consideration once we can map out how to stack it all. Stay tuned for updates on this!

For now, please be aware that the concrete pad had been poured in the corner of the yard. At this point, the yard is completely safe so playgroup will continue as per normal. The plan is for the shed to be constructed in October and it shouldn’t interrupt our sessions; however, we’ll let everyone know if plans change.
So exciting to see progress 🚧

Oh how we love the atmosphere of our playgroup ❤️
We were surprised to look at the attendance sheet at the end of session and count 37 children in total. You would think that 37 babies and toddlers would be chaotic but our session had the opposite feeling. Children were busy. They were talking, they were playing, they were laughing, and we had toys everywhere - but it felt perfectly calm and warm. All our our sessions are filled with the best vibes this term and we can only hope it’ll continue 🙌

If friendly, relaxed, and fun vibes are you’re style, then come and join the playgroup family 💛

Father’s Day Member’s Raffle 💚
As we did on Mother’s Day, we have a voucher to raffle off to our enrolled families. This time the $50 voucher was generously donated by Rumps & T-Bones and we greatly appreciate it! Next Sunday we will do an online draw with ALL our enrolled families names and post the winner in the group. You don’t need to buy tickets or do anything - every Dad/family in our playgroup is automatically in the draw. This is a chance for us to show you our appreciation and shower you with a little bit of love 💝

*Raffle will be completed under the enrolled name and for every family. Those who fill in the ‘father role’ in their family deserve to be celebrated and given a chance to win too.

For Week 7 we’re combining the book ‘Tiny Tradies’ with a Father’s Day theme. We’ll have a construction sensory tray, play dough, and a special craft for children to make for Dad/a parent figure. 🚜👷

Speaking of Dads are playgroup, it’s a perfect opportunity to remind all our current and future members that we are not a Mum’s Group. We do have a large number of Mums who attend playgroup so it might be easy to think that; however, we warmly welcome and encourage Dads to attend our sessions. We have a solid group of Dads who attend consistently (generally every second week due to work shift) and we love having them! If you’re a Dad and want to come along, please do!
Mums, Dads, Aunties, Uncles, Grandparents - all are welcome here ❤️

Monday was out ‘That’s Not My…’ theme, and if you think our sensory tray looks like we just raided our junk drawers at home and the art cupboard at playgroup and threw everything into a tray, then let me tell you…You are correct.
It looked messy and unplanned, but it achieved its goal. Babies through to 5 year olds loved picking up the strange bits of material and feeling the different textures. We love a simple but fun tray! ❤️

We also have some new picnic tables for our crafts and eating! Seating was one of our challenges in the new building and these foldable picnic tables are a fantastic solution! Check them out on Monday 😊

When setting up toys before the session, putting some toys outside always seems like such a great idea. We tell each other ‘it’ll be good for the kids when there are breaks in the rain’.

And then every week we’re all stuck outside because nothing is more enticing to toddlers than bad weather and the opportunity to make their parents feel miserable for a few minutes. They do not wait for breaks in the rain. If anything, they wait until it’s the windiest and wettest portion of the session and make a beeline for the door.
But we do it again the following week because if there aren’t any toys outside they’ll probably just venture out in the rain and lick a fence post or bury their shoes in the sand for fun. Toys seem like the better options.

Week 5️⃣

We’re diving into every baby’s favourite books. We couldn’t pick between ‘That’s not my puppy’, or ‘That’s not my dragon’ or ‘That’s not my unicorn’, so we decided to combine them all and go with a ‘That’s no my…’ theme to cover all bases! That way we can enjoy them all.
The babies in particular will love this week’s sensory tray as they get to explore a range of textured materials - from sponges to loofahs to feathers. 🪶

Tomorrow 9:30-11:30am. All welcome ❤️
