St Columba Playgroup

St Columba Presbyterian Church

We offer two groups (during term time):
PLAYGROUP - 9:30am to 11:30am Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays
MUSIC & PLAYGROUP - 9:30am to 11:30am on Wednesdays
Sessions are held at 480 Ti Rakau Drive, Botany
We provide a modern facility offering a great range of educational equipment (indoor and outdoor), catering to children who are 0-5 years of age. Playgroup is not just for the children - our aim is to encourage and equip parents to learn new skills and make new friends.
A different theme is covered each term to educate and stimulate your children. Sessions include free play, lesson time, music, craft and morning tea (please bring food and water for your child). Cost of each session is $5.00 per family and includes morning tea for the parents/care givers. Our Playgroup and Music & Playgroup have been set up in conjunction with the Ministry of Education Early Childhood Development Unit, aimed to provide social interaction for preschoolers, fun and safe activities that cover all recommended preschool learning areas, in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere.
Please check out the St Columba Playgroup Facebook page for upcoming activities, Tool Box Parenting Courses and School Holiday Sessions, or phone 274-4864 for more info.
We hope you join us soon!

Mei Leng Wong Reporter from NZ Gardener & Get Growing

Kia ora neighbours. If you've got a family recipe for courgettes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our January 2025 issue.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
