Playgroup and Picnic Lunches
ACC PLAYGROUP to July 2010
Everyone is welcome!
The playgroup is generally held on the first Wednesday of each month commencing at 10.00 am. This date may change when school holidays fall in the same month as we try to have a playgroup each school holidays.
If a playgroup is being hosted by a family then please bring along a plate of goodies for the generous host and if possible telephone them and let them know you will be attending and what you will be bringing with you. If the playgroup is held in a park or at a play centre, then we are all self sufficient. Should it rain on a then please do not hesitate to contact me to find out if an alternative arrangement has been made.
I have found the group to be a wonderful support network and have made some life long friends. I look forward to each group gathering as do my children. We really enjoy meeting and welcoming new families to our group so please come along and join us! If anybody is interested in hosting a playgroup at their homes please advise me.
Set out below are the upcoming dates for the ACC playgroup to Dec 2010.

If coming from Homebush Bay Drive turn left at the roundabout onto Underwood Street, then left at the lights onto Pomeroy Street, then left onto George Street and follow it for a while (until almost the end) when you turn into Victoria Avenue. The parking area for the playground is just at the end of Victoria Avenue, you can't miss it. There is also a way via Concord but it is a little tricky.

PICNICS
The ACC bi-annual picnics are changing in 2010!
We are going to try a new format this year.
Picnics will be held in a park and each family can bring their own picnic lunch and drinks.
There won't be a cost but families and individuals are asked to make a donation to support ACC's work
