Fathering Week in Waitakere
Waitakere City has held a ‘fathering week’ in the lead-up to Fathers Day starting on Monday 27 August.
Events included a panel discussion on supporting new fathers, a father and son hike in the Waitakeres and a ‘training night’ for dads to play games with their pre-schoolers.
Auckland University lecturer Warwick Pudney pointed out that there is no specific ‘fathering service’ in Waitakere City.
