Ōhope Preschool Playground
With priorities on whanau and community, Ōhope Playgroup is a Ministry of Education Certified Playgroup.
Facebook
We meet at Knox Presbyterian Church, Ohope for lots of fun games, music and outdoor entertainment.
Tamariki enjoys a well-resourced and fenced area in beautiful surrounds to play and learn. We find the adults also love having some time out from their everyday chores and distractions, to build stronger connections with their children and others in the community.
We run our session on Wednesdays from 10:30am – 1pm for tamariki under the age of 6.
We also love to explore places in our stunning surrounds, so regularly run field trips.
We don’t do fees here but appreciate a koha.

Yeah Nah it's Not OK
The Yeah Nah it’s Not OK Eastern Bay of Plenty Song Quest is organised by the EBOP Family Safety Events Committee and the Have a Heart Charitable Trust, plus a big group of volunteers from all walks of life.
Our Quest is to find an ORIGINAL SONG with a POSITIVE MESSAGE against all VIOLENCE.
This FREE community event showcases Eastern Bay of Plenty’s talented youths perform ORIGINAL SONGS AGAINST VIOLENCE, and there are always spot prizes up for grabs!

Heart Strings
We had a vision to reach out into local communities, we wanted to know who lived in the surrounding communities and be known as a people that cared so the Heart to Heart event was launched by the Have a Heart Trust. From listening to the conversations of those who attended each of the Heart to Heart events, Chris and the leaders became acutely aware of the needs for food security and the need for debt management skills…
And so the Heart Strings project was created to benefit the vulnerable and socially disadvantaged children, young people and their families in our communities.
