Taroona Community Association Newsletter
News from Possums Possums is a community-based nonprofit play centre, based in Taroona and managed by the parents of the children enrolled. We offer a quality, caring prekinder experience for 3-5 year old in a happy, safe and stimulating environment. This caring and nurturing approach helps to support the development of childrens’ self-esteem, confidence and independence. Due to increased running costs and lower enrolments this year, Possums Playcentre’s Committee and staff have organized a number of fundraising events to allow us to continue to provide a top quality program. We have been absolutely delighted with the amazing community response. Our Clothes Swap Night and our Ladies Champagne Night at the Taroona Hotel were sold out! It was wonderful to see past Possums Committee members and parents at these events. We would like to thank everyone who attended, our organisers and the Taroona Hotel. We are currently organising a Facebook auction as another fundraiser. The Facebook auction is now open and will close at 9pm on 14 June. If you would like to join in the bidding please look for the Possums Winter Auction on Facebook. We already have many great donations but if you would like to make a contribution to the auction please contact Jessica Schmidt via Facebook or talk to the Possums team. Possums enrolments are now growing, but there are still vacancies on our Wednesday and Friday sessions. Please phone 0418390432 or email possumsplaycentre@hotmail.com for more information.
