HELP US BRING JERRY THE MOUSE HOME!
We have been contacted by a community member who attended our Messy Play Day on Saturday as sadly their 2 year old has lost his beloved Jerry the Mouse.
If you happen to come across Jerry in his adventures please hand him in to Angliss Neighbourhood House and we will make sure these two buddies are reunited 🤞🏼🤞🏽🐭❤️

Our Bluestone Toy Library outreach team had a wonderful time at the West Footscray Bunnings Fathers Day event last week. Shout out to the wonderful Suzy and Barkha who always do amazing activities/events for the community, and who are always so welcoming and supportive.

Also a shout out to Community Bank Seddon as it is thanks to their wonderful sponsorship that we have our fabulous outreach resources, and this supports us to take toy library on the road to engage and connect with our wider community.

We will be back for the West Footscray Bunnings Christmas Family Night on Thursday the 4th of December so hope to see you there! 😍

Here are just some of the amazing new resources we have been able to purchase for our Bluestone Toy Library thanks to being successful for the Victoria Government Existing Toy Libraries Grant.

There is everything from more dinosaurs, lots of new large animals, a variety of pretend play sets, beginner railway sets, and a new kitchen!

Thanks to our Bluestone Toy Library members for giving us lots of great ideas and we look forward to seeing our members getting to try out the new range, and hearing feedback 😊
