Craft group starts again

The Beachside Family Centre's 3Cs group (Craft, Coffee and Conversation) will start for the term on July 17.

"The demands on parents with children 0 to 8 years of age often means they don't get time to achieve something for themselves or get a break from their children," said facilitator Ms Debbie Notara.

"3Cs is held on Monday afternoons from 12.30pm to 2.30pm, giving parents an opportunity to meet other parents in the area."

The group gave parents the opportunity to do craftwork while their children were being cared for.

Activities planned for term three were chocolate making, fleece blanket, sushi making, fabric printing, necklace making, card making, pressed flowers and making fridge magnets.

The 3Cs group is held at Beachside Family Centre in the grounds of Umina Public School, Sydney Ave, Umina.

Cost of the group is $2 to $3 depending on the activity.

Childcare is available for a gold coin donation.

Bookings for the craft group and childcare are essential and can be made by contacting Debbie Notara on 4343 1929 on Monday mornings.
