Hello Hayhurst families,

Let us take a moment to acknowledge the difficulties we have all faced for nearly a year now. We have been trying, to the best of our abilities, to adapt to working from home, keeping our kids engaged with their education in ways we could not have foreseen, and have been isolated from family and friends.

And while we are beginning to see light at the end of the tunnel, many of us feel the need to re-establish a sense of connection and community to one another, to validate our experiences and challenges that have emerged during this time, and to help one another discover new ways to embrace resilience.

We invite you to join our community group for parents and caregivers, Waiting for Buses, starting in February, which will be held every other Wednesday from 8am to 9am. You can drop in and stay as long as you would like. The group will be facilitated by our Qualified Mental Health Professional, Ryan Dicker, and will focus mainly on giving parents and caregivers a space to connect and speak freely of their experiences in an effort to support one another.

The 1st group will be held from 8am-9am on Wednesday, February the 17th and can be accessed by the following link: Waiting for Buses.

So grab a coffee or some tea and join us in reconnecting with our community!
