Next playgroup - Outing, Tuesday 30 August

Hi everyone

Thank you everyone for the shared morning tea, and I was happy to see that the cellophane windows activity was enjoyed. There are a few photos from the day below.





Next playgroup

Next playgroup is Tuesday 30 August, and it is scheduled to be an outing. However due to the wet weather lately, I am going to propose that we keep a back-up plan in case of wet weather. So the plan is as follows:-

If it is dry, we will meet at the Picnic Island playground at Southbank.


If it is wet, we will meet at the State Library Kids Corner.


I will send out an email on Monday night to let you know, based upon the weather report, which venue we'll meet at, or you can ring me on the number in your email.

I hope everything went well for the morning tea. I'm sorry I couldn't be there, my son woke up that morning with a runny nose and I didn't want to spread his germs.
