🧸🎡 Playgroups this week from 15-19 June πŸ’›

Dear Parents and Whānau,

We know that parenting is filled with both beautiful moments and challenging days. Whether you're arriving with a happy little explorer, a sleepy baby, or a toddler full of energy, we want you to know that you are always welcome at Dunedin Parents Centre.

Our playgroups are more than just a place to playβ€”they are a space to connect, share experiences, make friends, and find support from other families who understand the joys and challenges of raising children.

Every song sung, every story shared, and every new friendship formed helps create the warm and welcoming community that makes our playgroups so special. Thank you for being part of it.

We look forward to seeing you and your little ones each week as we learn, laugh, play, and grow together.

With warmth and appreciation,

πŸ’› The Dunedin Parents Centre Volunteers
