Moving to Bendigo, have 1 year old DD

We've just returned to Bendigo after a couple of years away, but I was here for 11 years prior to that smile Love Bendigo smile There are lots of different playgroups around, just depends on where you want to join in. Also, if you are on Facebook, join the Bendigo Social Little Butterflies group, they do some great stuff! I'd be happy to meet up too smile The Lake is great - there is coffee there for the mums and plenty of space to play for the kids smile

Hi there,
We're really enjoying Bendigo . We haven't joined a playgroup though as we're still house hunting so we're not sure which one we'll be near!
Fancy meeting at the lake or park next week? I can usually do mornings or afternoons after 3.30 if that suits?
For some reason I can't pm from this iPad..... Technology!

Siobhan, we are going to go to the Spring Gully playgroup probably not next week but the week after (got my mum visiting next week smile ).

I am sure you've already tried this, but when we were back in Melb searching for a rental property up here, we found it hard as every place we saw on realestate.com seemed to already be taken by the time we rang up about it (straight away!). We ended up chatting to a lovely girl from Luke Goggin and she took us to see some places that weren't on realestate.com or their website yet, and we got our place that way. And we're in Spring Gully, which we love so far. It's really quiet and peaceful, but still not even 10 minutes to the CBD.

Looking forward to meeting you ladies at some point soon!

Have you tired Reecy Owens realestate? we moved from Melbourne and went through them, they're really nice. Never had a issue with them

I'll get back to you with the number for playgroup. We meet at the maternal child health centre on spring gully road. It's pretty much the same building as the kinder there...I should just check with our coordinator that she doesn't mind me putting her number up on a public forum lol

Hi everyone,

Two or three of us on this forum thread are planning on meeting up tomorrow at about 11ish in either Rosalind Park or near the lake. If anyone is interested in coming too, PM me and I'll give you the details once they're set. Just something relaxed, let the babies have a play and crawl around.

Hope to see some new faces at playgroup today!! grin

We won't be there today after all! We spent the day in Melbourne yesterday and didn't get back til late, so things are all over the place today and bubs has just gone down for her morning nap. But we will definitely be there next week!
