Hi all,
A state of local emergency in the Canterbury region has been declared due to a severe weather warning for Thursday 23 October. Schools etc are all closed, and we're making the call now to cancel Creative Capers tomorrow morning too just in case. Praying it won't be as bad as predicted, but less people out and about is probably a good thing either way. We'll miss you, but look forward to seeing you again next week. Stay safe everyone!

Another week, another Creative Capers session this Thursday =.  Lots of fun to be had and things to explore together wit...

Schools back, and so is Creative Capers! After a well deserved school holiday, we're all go again this Thursday morning for Term 4. Lots of fun to be had and things to explore together with your preschooler.
All welcome, both old and new faces!
I'm loving the pretty blossoms out at the moment, so our craft zone will be inspired by the gorgeous colours of the season.
