As this year comes to a close, I want to say a huge thank you. For eight years it's been a joy and privilege to journey with you through these special early years with our little ones... we've shared the highs and lows, the first steps, snack times and chaos at the craft table!

This has been more than a Tuesday-morning activity. It’s been a place of connection, encouragement, and genuine community.

With full hearts we want to let you know that this year will be our last season of running this playgroup. We feel the ending of this season deeply. It has meant so much to us, and we trust to you as well. We’ve laughed, swapped stories, wiped tears (not always the kids!) and shared life in all its beautiful, messy wonder.

Together this community has been a source of strength and joy to so many of us on our parenting journeys. Thank you for making this place so special.

Parenting is no small thing. It’s a marathon, not a sprint, and we’ve loved experiencing a real village that builds us up for the long road. Though this season is ending, our gratitude for this community will remain.

As we finish this chapter, we’re praying for all the families we’ve had the privilege of walking with over these years. We trust that the love, support, and laughter we’ve shared here will continue to ripple outward in your families and friendships for a long time to come.

UPDATE:

We are excited to share that our friends at Christchurch Anglican Church in Newport are taking on playgroup! To find out more check out their website.
