One of our absolute favourite stalls at this Saturday’s School Fair will be the Plant Stall, and you definitely don't want to miss it!

Our amazing Green Group parent helper and plant stall coordinator, Suz, has spent the entire year propagating, growing, and cultivating plants just for this weekend. Plus, she's been gathering incredible plant donations and creating awesome garden goodies with our Green Group kids!

It's going to be great! 🪴

Hi families,

You may remember Rob Cope speaking in Dunedin about keeping our kids safe online.

This year, Rob launched a new nationwide initiative called Wild Dad, aimed at getting kids off screens and giving dads a chance to connect with other dads while having awesome weekly adventures with their kids.

Wild Dad is for dads, but where a child doesn’t have a dad involved in their life, a granddad, uncle or other strong and consistent father figure is very welcome to be part of it too.

The Dunedin Wild Dad Outpost has been running for the past few months, and the dads are getting together this Wednesday night to plan their adventures for the next term.

If this sounds like something that could be a great fit for your family, now is a great time to get involved. Head to www.wilddad.com, sign up for the Dunedin Outpost, and then come along to the planning night:

Wednesday 16 September
7:37pm
The Rope and Twine, 67 Macandrew Road, South Dunedin

Come along, meet the other local dads and help plan the adventures for the next term.

www.wilddad.com

Welcome to WildDad WildDad is a place for us dads to be dads — alongside a bunch of other dads — all doing epic, real-world stuff with our kids. ​ WildDad is a global community for dads who show up, do epic things, and raise stronger kids. Join other dads building grit, courage, and confidence...

Our school fair next Saturday (19th September) is going to be epic! We spent the day on a massive sorting mission, and my goodness... we have some UNREAL donations ready for sale! You won't want to miss these bargains.

We hope to see you there on Saturday between 11:00 AM and 3:00 PM!

It’s going to be phenomenal! 🙌 Bring your family, your friends, and a tote bag (or three)! 🛍️
