Celebrating 10 Years of Heatherbrae!

What better way to finish Children’s Week than with our 10th Birthday

Celebration for Heatherbrae!

A fabulous morning filled with joy and new and familiar faces, to recognise this fantastic program and the positive impact Heatherbrae has made to our local community, families and children over the last 10 years!!

In the previous financial year, 354 families came to visit, play and connect at Heatherbrae

A majority of the children visiting were under 3 years old, this is why we know #birthtothreematters to support the best outcomes for our families and children.

Thank you to everyone who came to celebrate

and our incredible Heatherbrae team, both past and present, who have done such meaningful work.
