Ngā mihi mahana ki a koutou katoa / Warm greetings to you all,
As winter settles in, the days are getting shorter and colder, it feels like quite a sensible idea to just stay put! Winter can be great for stripping some of the busyness away and not running ourselves ragged. We can still have connections with others as it remains to be an important part of our lives and wellbeing.
I hope to see some of you at training (or our online sessions are perfect from home), the PACE support group, or an event soon. Making connections with others can make all the difference! Please do not feel like you need to do this alone.

Join the Northwest Committee
The Northwest Committee is needing a couple of caregivers who are interested in giving a few hours a term to help with planning for events around the area. We can meet via Zoom or Skype for those of you that live across our region. See the event details below for what we’re planning.
Whānau Matariki Event
Bring the whānau along to celebrate the Māori New Year. We will be sharing kai over dinner and learning about the star of Puanga through a story, waiata, and fun activities for tamariki. Remember to bring a warm jacket!

The next meeting is on Wednesday 30th June at 9.30 am. Join other caregivers who are on a travelling a similar journey and slowly adding to their parenting kete.
