Desperately Seeking!

The Toy Library needs a new Chairperson and Membership Officer

Do something fab: put up your hand and become a Committee Member! Seriously. After more than three years, President Chris is hanging up his Committee hat.  Membership Officer, Annie, is also leaving. We must fill these positions as soon as possible to ensure the future of Play-A-While Toy Library. Chris say it’s time to move on, build garden sheds, colour code clothes wardrobes, cook a decent dinner… That’s theplan, anyway. 
Prez Chris NZ's Next Top Committee Members
Please email president@playawhile.org or speak to the Committee if you would like to fill any of these positions.  The committee meets once a month, and around one to two hours of support is required. You’ll find it challenging yet rewarding, you’ll be part of a great team and know that you’re contributing invaluably to your community. Surprise and amaze yourself – join up. Our other Committee Members, Lisa, Heather, Belinda plus librarian Bridget, will be there to help and guide you.
