SESSION UPDATE: Sunday 13th September 09

This week was our first session at the Greenwith Community Centre. We had three families attend and welcomed another wonderful new family.... the Kerin Family. Carley & Shaun brought along their gorgeous sons James & Mitch and had fun with the rest of the group playing with toys, riding bikes outside and taking advantage of the massive basketball court.

My sons Jacob and Aaron were so worn out by the time we got home, I haven't heard a peep out of either of them and Kristie has been quiet as well (if only we had Rainbow Land Play Time to go to every day!!). I would expect Taylor and Ben would be the same with all the activity they joined in with.

We were also fortunate to have the City of Tea Tree Gully's Neighbourhood Development Team Leader, Maggie L'Estrange, visit the group.

It was a bit of a relief to get the first session back after a four week break out the way, especially because we are now using a different building. It will probably take a bit of getting used to, but I am sure after a small amount of time, it will feel like we have been there for ages. The basketball court was a big hit today, which was lovely to see.

Take care and HAPPY RAINBOWS

SESSION UPDATE: Sat 8th August 09

We were blessed with another beautiful day again this week. There is nothing better than being able to enjoy the sunshine and having lots of natural light inside the hall!

We welcomed another 2 new families to our group this week. Nonni's son's Bailey and Finn had a lovely time playing in the sand pit, while Fiona's children Brodie, Alicia, Christine & Jennifer all enjoyed inside and outside play.

We are fast approaching 20 families who are members of our playgroup since March this year when the group first began. It is great to see that each family attends when it is good for them, whether it be almost every week or every now and again. It brings me much personal joy to know that we have provided a place for our families to go on a Saturday where they we can all surround ourselves by other beautiful families who completely understand what we are all going through. The best moments are those when we get to celebrate new milestones together.

Today was great. Thanks to everyone who turned up. It was wonderful to see all the kids mixing together, regardless of their personal situations. I know I had a wonderful time and I hope all the other parents did too. A big thanks to the dads who went. It is so wonderful to mix with other families, share stories and just be together.

A big thank you to everyone who has become a member of the Rainbow Land Play Time FB Page. Your support really helped Shellee & I to have the passion, motivation and drive to get everythinig organised for the first playgroup session. We both really appreciate you.

Looking forward to next week - I know my kids are. See you then. Allison
