Coffee catch up for Heatherwood Parents
Heatherwood Facebook
We are very happy to share our Facebook group with all the Heatherwood families.
A private, positive and safe group to connect with others, arrange coffee catch ups, pass on old uniforms, share advice, ask for advice, etc.
To access the group, please click the link, answer some questions, and then apply to join. There are some rules to follow, and all posts will require approval before they are posted. There is plenty of chat, so please don’t be shy and come and visit the group.
We look forward to connecting with many more families and helping support the group to evolve into a space that bridges the social gap.
