A few pics from our Valentine’s Scavenger Hunt last Saturday ❤️

Despite the windy weather, we had a blast making paper flowers, shopping at the Op Shop, and decorating (and eating!) yummy cookies from Rollers Bakery.

A massive shout-out to our local legends:

The staff at Northcote Library - Te Whare Mātauranga o Te Onewa: For being absolute lifesavers and letting us move our flower-making station indoors when the wind picked up!

Rollers Bakery: For providing the incredible cookies that were definitely the highlight of the day for our young decorators. 🍪

Northcote Baptist Op Shop: For playing along and helping the kids find the perfect gifts with their Northcote Dollars. 🛍️🎁

We’re so lucky to have such a supportive community. See you at the Doggie Day Out on Sunday!
