Kia ora, as the year draws to a close and some of our tamariki prepare to start their educational journey at Kura (school), I'd love to capture the spirit of our playgroup with a special end of year class picture. This keepsake, not intended for online sharing, will be a beautiful reminder of the connections we've made. I'm proposing to offer this as a free gift, or for a small donation to our playgroup, with a digital copy provided. If there's enough interest, I plan to make this happen around the 10th of December. Thank you for being part of our playgroup community - your support and participation have made this year truly special!

Due to unforeseen sickness, our volunteers regretfully cannot open tomorrow. As school holidays approach next week, we will be closed for the duration. We are grateful for your support of Plunket this term; it has been a pleasure to meet new families and observe our tamariki flourish together. Wishing you a safe break, and we will see you next term.

Last week our tamariki participated in sensory play with beans and rice, experiencing different textures and discovering various sizes to funnel the beans through. This week, we will be playing with SLIME, so please expect messy clothing. We will meet again tomorrow, Wednesday, from 10am-12pm. Please bring a packed lunch for your child. We will provide coffee, tea, and biscuits, and appreciate a gold coin donation, although it is not mandatory. Everyone is welcome to attend, regardless of affiliation with Plunket.
