The Arts and Crafts Playgroup is a 10-week recurring program for children aged 0-5, held every Friday from April 24 to June 26, 2026, at the Craig Family Centre in Ashburton. Led by experienced kindergarten teacher Lin, sessions from 9:30am to 10:30am focus on creative art activities, pre-literacy drawing, story time, and music to develop fine motor skills, confidence, and school readiness. This structured yet joyful environment supports caregivers and children in a calm, inclusive space, with special welcome for Mandarin-speaking families. Booking one session secures the entire term, with options free for members or low-cost fees.
