Meeting every Wednesday evening from 7:00 – 9:00 pm in the Community Office 3 at the Onehunga Community Centre , 83 Church Street, (next to the library) the Fathers’ Mauri Ora Circle, embodying the principles of emotional, physical, intellectual and spiritual wellbeing, is a safe place where together we can discuss any fathering issues and collectively strengthen our fathering abilities.
strong> Wednesday evenings – 7-9pm downstairs in Community Office 3 at the Onehunga Community Centre
Facilitated by our Support Worker, Brendon Smith, what is discussed is determined by those who are there. Recently we’ve talked about topics like
- the need to inform children as soon as possible in the event of a separation
- deciding on the best school for your child
- the role our dads play in modelling how we father our children
- what happens when your ex partner wants to move to another town with your child
- children and sport
to name just a few.
Children are welcome, though we do usually leave them in front of a TV with a tin of biscuits!
You are welcome to “just turn up” any Wednesday or if you would like more information feel free to call Brendon on 525 1690 or 022 697 7026 or email him at auckland@fatherandchild.org.nz
The funding support of the Maungakiekie and Tamaki Community Boards (Auckland City Council) is gratefully acknowledged.
