Have YOU been to Mainly Music?

f you have young children, you have probably either heard of or visited an Upper Clutha mainly music session during the past 10 years. We offer children aged 0-5 and their caregivers a weekly music and movement session, followed by morning tea and playtime. Not only do children develop motor skills, language, and imagination, but they enjoy spending time with their mum/dad/grandparent and the other kids. The warm and welcoming community that has developed is also great place for parents to connect. Our Wanaka sessions are on Tuesdays during school term time, 9:30-11:00am, in the Presbyterian church hall on Tenby
Street. In Hawea we are holding one session during Term 1 on Wednesday 7 March, 9:30-11:00am at St. Ninian’s, Hawea Flat. Attendance and input on that day will determine plans for the rest of the year, so if you are a Hawea regular or newcomer please join us! Started in 1990, each mainly music group is run by volunteers from a local church. Originating in New Zealand, there are now branches in Australia, the UK, South Africa, and the US. Locally we will celebrate 10 years this year, and members from all area churches are involved. For more information, contact Lynda Gregg 443 8708 or Kathy Dedo 443 5364. All welcome!
