Manningham Hello and welcome to August 2016.This is the month where we start to see little signs of the upcoming spring season. You can feel the weather slightly warm up in conjunction with tiny sprouts of plant life appearing from nowhere.

I think we are having an extremely cold winter this year and I can't wait for the spring season ahead.

This month's front cover is a special one as it features a local boy named Ashton.

I just love it when we can feature our local children and make them a part Your Child in Manningham magazine. This gorgeous photo was created by Candykids Photography who have the skill and expertise to capture some special memories for you. Why not visit their website at www.candykidsphotography.

August is the start of dental week a great time to organise your children's regular dental check up with some of our local dentists Dr. Hoang Nguyen and Dr. Yea Lee Shu and there amazing and experienced team at Templestowe Dental Group, they welcome all new patients and will make you feel right at home.. Dr. Hoang Nguyen has written an article that is really worth reading on page 10 titled 8 Simple tips for a happy healthy smile. Why not Book your appointment today at www.templestowedentalgroup.com.au In the month of August you can join a play group or the local toy library which is a great way to keep your children entertained without breaking the budget. There are so many play groups to choose from. Go to page 29 and read our what's On in Manningham page or go to www.manningham.vic.gov.au/playgroups-and-toylibraries this will take you to a few brochures which you can download filled with lots of information.

In Manningham we are so lucky we have so many parks to choose from. During August you can still go outdoors and have fun and why not visit one of our local parks and take the kids outside maybe have a picnic, play date or BBQ. You can go online at Manningham City Council: Playgrounds http://www.manningham.vic.gov.au/play/playgrounds.html and see which park or outdoor area is nearest to you.

I hope you all have a great month, enjoy reading our August Issue.

If you have not done so yet please don't forget to LIKE US on facebook which is also a great way to keep in touch with local events and businesses. If you ever miss out on a copy of Your Child in Manningham you can read it online at www.yourchildinmanningham.com.au.
